A 58-year-old man was injured on the right side of his face and neck after an assault involving a BB gun on Blakeslee Street last night.
According to a press release from the Bristol Police Department, officers found the victim suffering from two puncture type wounds, which were consistent with those caused by a BB gun. His injuries were not life threatening, the release said.
The victim told police he was walking north on Blakeslee Street at about 7 p.m. when he heard a couple of shots that he thought were from a paintball gun, and then felt a stinging sensation on the right side of his face, the release said. When the victim looked up, the suspect holding the gun confronted him, and fired a couple more shots before heading south on Blakeslee Street, the release said. Although patrol units and a K-9 unit searched the area, the suspect was not found, the release said.
This incident is similar to the one that took place over the weekend in front of the Disabled American Veterans Hall on Riverside Avenue. Both locations are in close proximity, and the description of the suspect is similar, the release said. The suspect is described as a Hispanic man between the ages of 20 and 30 with a stocky build, according to the release. He also appears to be between 5’7 and 5’9, and was last seen wearing a gray baseball style shirt with blue sleeves and a blue baseball cap or bandana, the release said. On Sunday, the suspect was wearing dark colored clothing, a hat, and may have had tattoos on his right arm, the release said.

Officers responded to the scene after the report of a concerned citizen, who was standing by the child, the release said. When Collin arrived, emergency responders evaluated her daughter, who was not injured during the incident, the release said. The child was then cleared and released to the family at the scene, the release said.

A snow parking ban for the city of Bristol is in full effect until further notice, according to a press release from the Bristol Police Department. Registered owners of vehicles in violation are subject to a fine and tow of their vehicle.

The series of phone call threats made to at least several school districts in the state have turned out to be “swatting” threats.
According to a message of Bristol Supt. of Schools Dr. Ellen Solek that was posted on the Mayor’s Facebook page, these swatting threats use sophisticated software programs designed to “deliberately distract and disrupt daily routines.” Solek said these kinds of threats have prompted the FBI as well as state and local law enforcement to “take swift action and to conduct a thorough investigation of each incident.” On Tuesday, phone call threats were made at Bristol Central High School and South Side School, resulting in early dismissal at both schools as a precaution. Patrol officers responded to both schools and took safety measures to ensure there was no immediate danger to any students.
Meanwhile, other phone call threats were reported on Tuesday at Stamford and West Haven High Schools, and Tolland Schools have also investigated a similar threat that took place the next day.
Solek said in her statement that during meetings with law enforcement, officials expressed that “ongoing investigations may quickly lead to determining the sending location(s) and the perpetrator(s) of these threats.”
Solek also said in her statement, “First and foremost, our primary focus in the Bristol Public Schools is to foster and to maintain our schools as safe and secure places for children – each and every day. Even when events such as [Tuesday’s] threats occur, professional staff in every one of our schools consistently undergoes numerous staff development workshops and training in all aspects of school safety and security. They are well trained and well prepared to enact rehearsed school safety protocols.”
Solek added in her statement that personnel are trained to “work closely with local and state law enforcement officials and to closely adhere to all on-site threat assessments.” According to the Bristol Police Department, the threat received at Bristol Central was in reference to a person with a gun on school grounds, while the threat at South Side was in reference to a bomb at the school. Both schools were secured and searched by police, and nothing was found.
Solek said in her statement that unauthorized calls were made directly to local news stations, and postings were made to social media before police arrived to the schools, and before school safety protocols could be fully carried out. She added that sending voice and text messages to 9,280 recipients during mid-day can take up to ten minutes to reach their phone during the day when messaging is at peak volume.
“What can result from those unauthorized calls and postings is confusion, misinformation, or incomplete information about the events taking place—just what the ‘Swatters’ intend,” said Solek in her statement. “We are continuing to work with our messaging service and our technology staff to fix the delays that occurred…and to speed up the overall transmission of voice messaging and texting so that we can provide you with accurate on-site information as quickly as possible.”

The Bristol Police Department is warning residents about an IRS scam occurring throughout the city.

According to a press release from the Bristol Police Department, officers received numerous complaints from residents who received a phone call from an individual claiming to be an IRS agent or an automated phone message from the IRS, claiming they owed fees for late taxes. Residents would be threatened with arrest if they did not pay the late taxes, the release said.

In the release, the police department reminded residents that the IRS will never:

• Call to demand immediate payment or call about owed taxes without first mailing out a bill.
• Demand that you pay taxes without giving you an opportunity to question or appeal the amount that it says you owe.
• Require you to use a specific payment method for your taxes, including a prepaid debit card.
• Ask for credit or debit card numbers over the phone.
• Threaten to bring in local police or other law enforcement groups to arrest you for not paying.

Residents should never give out any information over the phone and hang up immediately, the release said.

To report the scam, residents can call the IRS at 1-800-366-4484. For more information, visit “Tax Scams and Consumer Alerts” on IRS.gov.
