East Hartford Police have arrested a man who is accused of leaving a sick dog in a plastic bag on the side of the road.

Officers said 58-year-old Anthony Anderson, of East Hartford, was arrested on Wednesday after an 8- or 9-year-old pit bull was found inside of a plastic bag on the side of Willys Street.

The dog was found by a resident of the road and the resident confirmed the dog's owner was Anderson, authorities added.

According to police, the dog was extremely sick, emaciated, barely alive and had not been taken care of for an extended period of time.

The dog was taken to the local animal shelter and was put down due to his or her poor condition, officers said.

When police contacted Anderson, authorities said he admitted to disposing of the dog and said he thought the dog died the day before and didn't know what to do with the body.

Anderson is charged with cruelty to animals.

NBC Connecticut meteorologists are expecting a toasty weekend to end summer.

High pressure off of the east coast will help to keep full sunshine and warm temps for the rest of the weekend, which is the final weekend of summer.

Highs both Saturday and Sunday will top out into the low 80s inland with temps around 80 at the shore.

Before a cold front arrives on Monday evening, temperatures may approach the upper 80s (away from the beaches) with a moderate to even high levels of humidity.

The cold frontal passage late Monday may kick off a shower or thundershower Monday evening.

The cold front will bring temperatures to more seasonable levels by Tuesday and Wednesday.

Dry weather looks to continue for the first week of fall. Autumn officially arrives Monday at 3:50 A.M.

Firefighters rescued a construction worker who fell and hit his head while working in Norwalk on Saturday.

Crews were called to St. Mathews Church on Scribner Avenue around 8:30 a.m. after a worker was injured in a fall.

According to firefighters, the 58-year-old construction worker fell approximately eight feet and hit his head while working on a building foundation for a recreation center at the church.

Fire crews secured the man in a rescue basket and used a ladder and rope rigging to remove him, officials said.

The man was transported by paramedics to Norwalk Hospital, where he was admitted for observation, authorities added.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is investigating the incident.

The Connecticut chapter of the House of Heroes stepped in again on Saturday to help a deserving World War II veteran in Berlin.

Ninety-two-year-old Eugene Polaske served in the United States Marine Corps, enlisting in 1945 at the age of 17.

“I quit school. Didn’t feel like going to school anymore,” he said.

Years later, he and his wife settled into their Berlin home, raising their three children. Now, about 60 years later, it needed some basic repairs. About 30 volunteers spent the day putting in a new deck, front railing and landscaping.

“Our veterans need to be thanked,” House of Heroes Connecticut Chair Carol May said. “Many of them were never thanked for their service to our country.

The Connecticut chapter of the non-profit has been serving veterans since 2012, doing free, one-day home repairs to make the day-to-day more manageable. For its 122nd project, the Newington-based company, PCX Aerostructures, stepped in again.

”We supply an awful lot of product for our men and women in uniform and we support them in our business and often times they don’t get the kind of support they need once they’re back,” PCX Aerostructures President & CEO Jeff Frisby said. “We see this as a wonderful opportunity to give back.”

Polaske said he is overwhelmed by the organization’s support and grateful to stay in the home he has made a lifetime of memories in.

”I think I lived a good life. I don’t think I’d want to change anything. If I had to do it, I’d do it all over again the same way,” he added.

United Way of Greater New Haven broke a record Saturday when they packaged 37,500 meals to help families in need.

This is the largest number of meals packed and donated in a single day in New Haven, according to United Way's spokesperson.

About 100,000 people struggle with hunger in New Haven every year, 30,000 of whom are children, according to United Way.

“If we want to create healthy, thriving communities, we need to end hunger," President and CEO of United Way of Greater New Haven said in a statement.

More than 200 people volunteered for the New Haven Day of Caring.

Loved ones gathered Saturday night to hold a vigil for a missing 5-year-old girl who disappeared earlier this week from a New Jersey park. First responders and those helping in the investigation are expected to attend. 

A reward for information leading to Dulce María Alavez climbed to $35,000 Friday as a search that involved more than 100 local and federal officers failed to turn up the missing child.

Officials expanded the search radius by more than a mile but still failed to locate Alavez, who police believe was kidnapped by a man as she played at Bridgeton City Park around 4 p.m. Monday, Bridgeton Police Department Chief Michael Gaimari said.

"I'm not going to go into anything as a reference to what was recovered or anything like that. It's all part of the investigation," Gaimari told reporters during a Friday afternoon press conference. He refused to answer follow-up questions.

An official for Immigration and Customs Enforcement confirmed to NBC10 that the boyfriend of Alavez's mother, who is not the girl's biological father, had been detained by ICE and then released. However, the official would not confirm whether the boyfriend was in ICE custody at the time of the disappearance. 

The boyfriend, a 27-year-old Mexican citizen, "is part of an ongoing investigation by local, state and federal law enforcement partners and ICE cannot comment further," the official said, refusing also to confirm whether the investigation into the boyfriend involves Alavez's disappearance.

Earlier in the day, local and federal officers, including some from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, met at a baseball field at Bridgeton High School before fanning out in an ultimately fruitless search for the girl. The search came the day after the girl's grandmother, Norma Pérez, implored members of the Cumberland County community to tell investigators any details they may know about the disappearance of her granddaughter.

"Please, if you know something that will help us find my granddaughter, don't be afraid of the police," she said at a news conference, alluding to fears by some in the largely Mexican immigrant community that coming forward may lead to problems with ICE agents. Latinos make up about 51% of Bridgeton's approximately 25,000 residents, according to the latest census figures.

On Friday, Cumberland County Prosecutor Jennifer Webb-McRae thanked members of the community for their help in the investigation and asked that they continue to send in tips.

"At this point in the investigation, we continue to consider all possibilities. We remain hopeful that we're going to find Dulce alive," Webb-McRae said, adding that authorities are seeking to speak with Alavez's father, who Chief Gaimari previously said is believed to be out of the country.

One lead police have is that a man led Alavez from the playground to a red van with a sliding side door and tinted windows. She was placed in the back seat by the man who drove away with her at about 4:20 p.m.

An Amber Alert, issued when officials suspect a child has been abducted, went out Tuesday night for the missing girl.

At the time of her disappearance, Alavez wore a yellow shirt, black and white checkered pants with a flower design and white dress sandals. She has dark brown hair that was tied into a ponytail, police said. Alavez stands around 3 feet, 5 inches tall.

Police said Alavez was taken by a light-skinned male who appeared to be between 5-foot-6 and 5-foot-8 inches tall with a thin build. He was clean-shaven and had acne on his face. The suspect wore orange sneakers (possibly Nike), red pants and a black T-shirt.

Police obtained surveillance video from a nearby gas station of Alavez inside a convenience store with her siblings about 20 minutes before her disappearance.

"We don't have any solid suspects," Gaimari said earlier in the week. "We have video surveillance that we've gathered from all of this area."

Alavez arrived to the Bridgeton City Park with her mother, 3-year-old brother and 8-year-old aunt Monday afternoon, Chief Gaimari said.

Her mother, Noema Alavez Pérez, let the younger children run out of the car toward a playground area while she and the other child remained in the car, according to police.

Each child had an ice cream in hand as they ran toward the playground, Alavez Pérez said.

About 10 minutes later, the mother saw the 3-year-old boy upset and crying, his ice cream on the ground and his sister nowhere to be found. The boy pointed behind some buildings saying his sister went that way, Alavez Pérez said.

"I thought she was just playing hide-and-seek, that she was playing in the woods," Alavez Pérez said.

The mother called family members and they began to search the park and playground area. Afraid that someone had taken her daughter, Alavez Pérez called police around 4:50 p.m. Officers immediately began to search for the girl.

"I'm begging whoever has her to bring her back," Alavez's grandmother said. "She's innocent. She's little. I don't know why they did this."

Dulce attends Buckshutem Elementary in the Bridgeton School District and lives with her grandmother, who is her legal guardian.

The police chief said investigators believe the little girl's father is in Mexico.

"They're making attempts to locate him now," Chief Gaimari said of family and investigators.

Alavez Pérez's family members told NBC10 that her daughter's disappearance and the investigation have taken a toll on Dulce's mother.

"She's doing really bad," Nayiber Alavez Pérez, Dulce's aunt, said. "I know most people think she's the one who did it to her or something but I mean, the cops already investigated everything to her."

Democrats were quick to back working-class United Auto Workers in their strike against General Motors, delivering doughnuts and holding picket signs outside factories to show solidarity. It's a union they long have aligned with politically.

There were no doughnuts from Republicans.

Led by President Donald Trump, GOP officials have largely avoided taking sides in the strike that threatens to upend the economy in Michigan, an election battleground, a year before the 2020 vote. Both here and nationally, most Republicans said little about the substance of the dispute beyond hope for a speedy resolution.

The muted response reflects the tricky politics of labor for Republicans.

Trump has made inroads with members of some unions, due partly to promises to get tough on trade and keep manufacturing jobs in the United States. The message pulled key voters away from their Democratic union bosses, who Trump argues are corrupt.

But a strike prompted in part over GM's plan to close American plants highlights Trump's unfulfilled promises on manufacturing and gives Democrats a chance to play up their union credentials.

Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren planned to show up on the picket line in Michigan on Sunday, with rival Bernie Sanders expected this coming week. Nearly all the candidates have tweeted support for the workers.

"Proud to stand with @UAW to demand fair wages and benefits for their members. America's workers deserve better," Joe Biden tweeted. The union says Biden will be at a picket line in at the Fairfax plant in Kansas City, Kansas, on Sunday.

Trump is in a bind.

Backing the union would undermine Trump's message that labor does not advocate for its workers and give a powerful Democratic force a boost before an election.

Siding with GM would call into question his promises to defend workers and he would risk getting blamed for economic woes in Rust Belt states he needs to win reelection.

His task gets tougher the longer the strike goes on.

"There is a history of this issue being treacherous in Michigan," said Michigan State University political scientist Matt Grossmann. He noted that Republican Mitt Romney's presidential campaign suffered in 2012 when Democrats pointed repeatedly to an opinion article he wrote opposing the auto bailout. The headline: "Let Detroit Go Bankrupt."

"It is treacherous to be against the autoworkers," Grossmann said.

The president has appeared mindful of the dilemma, saying little about the strike. On Monday, the first day of the walkout, he told reporters at the White House the dispute was "sad" and he made a distinction between workers and their union leaders.

"I don't want General Motors to be building plants outside of this country," he said. "My relationship has been very powerful with the auto workers — not necessarily the top person or two, but the people that work doing automobiles."

The strike is playing out as a federal corruption investigation against top UAW officials widens. The FBI raided UAW President Gary Jones' suburban Detroit home last month and prosecutors have charged 11 people in the investigation so far, leading many of the 49,000 workers nationwide to question whether leaders have their backs .

Trump may be wise to try to separate union workers from their leaders.

Although union members have historically supported Democrats, Trump's promises to rewrite free trade agreements appeared to resonate with many in manufacturing areas. Nationally, union members were just slightly more likely than other voters to support Democrats in 2018, when the party gained control of the House. Six in 10 union voters supported Democratic candidates in House races, according to AP VoteCast, a survey of more than 115,000 midterm voters nationwide.

But Trump has struggled to make good on promises to stop companies from shipping jobs overseas.

From the first announcement in 2018, he was quick to criticize GM for wanting to close U.S. plants, an issue at the center of current fight. He met with CEO Mary Barra at the White House on Sept. 5, days after suggesting the company should move jobs from China to the U.S. GM has not been persuaded yet.

Trump's escalation of the trade war with China has hurt manufacturers, with factories in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania shedding workers since the end of 2018, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

His administration's decision to stop California from setting its own emission standards for cars and trucks also has created uncertainty in the industry.

"If this strike goes into a second week, you're going to see parts of Michigan go into a recession," said Patrick Anderson, CEO of the Anderson Economic Group, an East Lansing-based consulting firm whose work includes analyzing the auto industry. "Parts of Michigan are feeling it today. You're already seeing losses in income and people cutting back on their spending."

There is some expectation that Trump will intervene in an attempt to prevent that. But the White House denied a report this past week that it engaged in talks with the company and the union.

Michigan-based Republican strategist John Sellek said he believes Trump is on the side of the workers but is trying to "thread the needle" and not "blow up" GM's offer to save a plant or two.

"That fits his electoral victory path, and it fits his policy positions on trade," he said. "He's walking a more careful path rhetorically for now. But if he decides on any given day that it's time to jump in with both feet, we shouldn't be surprised that he does."

GM's proposal includes creating an electric vehicle battery assembly plant in Lordstown, Ohio, where the company is in the process of closing a small-car assembly plant. In addition, GM would pay for an electric pickup truck that would go into the Detroit-Hamtramck plant, which the company also wants to close.

The Lordstown facility would offer lower wages, according to a person briefed on the matter who was not authorized to publicly discuss the matter and spoke on condition of anonymity. The union wants to add jobs that pay the top UAW wage.

GM workers who were picketing Friday outside the Grand River factory in Lansing — one that makes Cadillacs and Chevy Camaros — were mixed on whether Trump should weigh in. Many said their top priority is giving temporary workers a path to permanent jobs. Others also want commitments that vehicles would be made in the U.S.

Keith Cannon, 47, of Lansing, said Trump, whom he does not back, should engage. He interpreted Trump's remarks about the strike as being supportive of workers.

"It's important because it affects the country he's running," said Cannon, a 19-year GM worker who as a UAW district committeeman represents workers in disputes with management. "He should weigh in on it because ultimately we affect the community. You have restaurants, stores, businesses that rely on us to support them as much as they support us with their services."

Cannon said he cannot spend much locally while living on strike pay of only $250 per week.

Democratic presidential candidates are beginning to flock to the picket lines. Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar went to Detroit on Thursday and Ohio Rep. Tim Ryan met Monday with strikers in Lordstown, where GM halted production earlier this year, laying off 1,400 employees.

One person is dead after a crash between a motorcycle and a pedestrian in Ledyard Saturday night.

The accident took place near the intersection of Indiantown Road and Foxwoods Boulevard near Foxwoods Casino at around 7:15 p.m., officials said.

When officials were called to the scene, they said two people involved in the accident had head injuries.

One of the victims was pronounced dead at the scene and the other was transported to Backus Hospital in Norwich. The extent of their injuries is unknown at this time.

Ledyard Fire Chief Jonathan Mann said they can't tell us yet if it was the motorcyclist or the pedestrian that was killed.

Life Star was requested at the scene.

The road is closed in the vicinity of the accident and is expected to reopen around 10:30 p.m.

The accident is under investigation and anyone with information is asked to call police.

Dozens of firefighters in Terryville and from departments across the state are all sleeping under the stars to help an 18-year-old girl with cancer.

The Deputy Chief's daughter, Jordan Cody, was diagnosed with lymphoma back in April, and the department wanted to help.

So, Chief Mark Sekorski decided to do something different and is sleeping on the roof of "Chute Gates Steakhouse" to raise money for the Cody family.

And they're having a little fun with it too, dressing up in costumes.

"To liven up the crowd a little bit, to make people laugh. To make Jordan laugh a little bit. To make her day a little brighter, her family a little brighter because they went through tremendous things together," Terryville Fire Chief Mark Sekorski said.

All the money they raise will go to Jordan and her family.

As for Jordan, she's doing well. She just finished her 5th and final round of chemotherapy earlier in September.

A 12-year-old girl born with a degenerative brain malformation was given a traditional bat mitzvah, complete with unicorns and rainbow cupcakes.

Numa Beron was born with Lissencephaly, and she spends much of her time at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Her condition is degenerative and she is unable to speak or stand.

However, when she was wheeled into the Medical Center Chapel, her eyes lit up at what she saw.

Numa's family and caregivers threw her a bat mitzvah, a traditional coming-of-age party for Jewish girls. The celebration was complete with cake and balloons, and Numa's parents helped her lay her hands on the Beron family Torah scroll.

Numa's mother, Ilina, said she was told at birth that Numa had a life expectancy of three years.

"By grace of God we are here and celebrating this miracle and this beautiful day," Ilina said.

Ramona Abney, Numa's nurse in the Cedars-Sinai Pediatric ICU, said the caregivers at the center have become very close with Numa and her family during the time she has spent there.

"We love her, we love her family," Abney said. "I told [Ilina] just recently they really are kind of like family members."

Ilina said she has learned much from her daughter.

"Numa has taught us about love, about strength, about perseverance," Ilina said. "She is a fighter, and we are here to support her journey and learn from her."

This weekend, some Connecticut communities continue to end outdoor activities early as a precaution to the EEE threat.

State public health officials announced Friday that an East Lyme resident died from Eastern Equine Encephalitis and a person in neighboring Old Lyme is in the hospital fighting the infection.

They’ve been advising families to avoid outdoor activity from dusk until dawn when mosquitoes are most active.

That’s why Colchester wrapped up their annual festival early.

For 15 years now, the town has hosted its family friendly festival on this weekend.

Organizers don’t remember weather ever botching their plans.

“We’ve never had a rain date, so this weekend has always been favorable,” Colchester Department of Public Works Director James Pagiola said.

But this year, mosquitoes are to blame for some schedule reconfiguring as EEE-infected mosquitos continue to be detected in the southeast corner of Connecticut.

“Basically you’re just looking at airing on the side of caution,” Pagiola said.

Saturday’s planned firework display has been postponed as a precaution and vendors shut down shop at 6 p.m.

Most community members we spoke to are getting used to these changes in their neck of the woods.

“Let’s say I have baseball practice, my baseball team can’t practice after 6,” 11-year-old Lucas said.

They’re glad local leaders are looking out for their livelihood.

“We’ve been reading the EEE thing and it kind of makes us nervous a little bit, so it’s probably better day than sorry, but we did bring bug spray just in case,” Chelsea Robinson, of Colchester, said.

A bittersweet, but safe way to wrap up summer here in Colchester.

“You got to live your life, you can’t live scared,” resident Chris Lovegrove said.

“You don’t want to get sick. That’s awful,” 14-year-old Caroline said.

CT Department of Public Health officials say mosquitoes continue to be active until the first frost.

Organizers in Colchester tell us they hope to reschedule the fireworks sometime after the first freeze and before the first snowfall.

When the lights come on for Friday night football at Walt Whitman High School, the smile of one coach shines just as bright.

Assistant Head Coach Ramon De Paula is celebrating 20 years with the team. He was born with Down syndrome but says he will never let it stop him from following his dreams.

"Being out there on the football field — anyone else who has disabilities, they also can do the same," he said.

At 36, De Paula has been with the team in Bethesda, Maryland, longer than his players have been alive. He attended the school himself.

"He said, 'Mom, I just signed up for football.' And I said, 'You did what?'" his mother, Haydee De Paula, recalled.

De Paula started as an equipment manager. His mom was worried, but the team promised her they would take care of him. Over the years, he rose through the ranks to become a coach. He leads the team in running through a banner at every home game.

The rush of being the first one out on the field has never gotten old, De Paula said.

"You see me? I led the charge," he recently told the head coach.

"Good job, Ramon," he replied.

De Paula calls the team his second family. Forming family is an effect he seems to have everywhere he goes. He volunteers for the Glen Echo Fire Department. Every Christmas, he dresses up as Santa.  

"We don’t look at him as an individual with a disability. We look at him as someone who is there to help us, and can help us, and does in fact help us," Lt. Victor Graves said.

De Paula also participates in the Special Olympics and works full-time doing clerical work for the government.

Being a coach to his players, though, is his biggest success. The team recently marked his 20th anniversary with hugs and cheers. 

"I love them very much. Being 20 years with the football team, it’s the biggest landmark in my life," he said.

The Down Syndrome Network of Montgomery County holds its annual Step Up walk to fund inclusive activities and educational programming that supports the community around those with Down Syndrome. The walk takes place from 10:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Oct. 5, and De Paula has encouraged those interested to register online.

As the Amazon continues to burn in a record fire season, experts say the problem is rooted in illegal logging and criminal networks exploiting the forests for its natural resources and agricultural potential, NBC News reports.

"The government doesn't have any governance over what is going on," Ane Alencar, science director for the Amazon Environmental Research Institute (IPAM), told NBC News from Brazil on Thursday.

Alencar co-authored a report released by IPAM last week that found deforestation — and not drought — is the primary driver behind the record fires this year. Human Rights Watch also released a report Tuesday pointing to "rainforest mafias" for causing the deforestation, fires and the deaths of the land's defenders — predominantly indigenous peoples.

Fires in the rainforest gained global attention last month when images of the smoke darkening skies over Brazil prompted an international outcry.

To help keep you informed on the most shared and talked about stories, each Saturday and Sunday we'll revisit five stories from the previous week, including the most recent updates.

Tax Turnaround

After backlash from Republican legislators and the public, Governor Ned Lamont and the Department of Revenue Services released a revamped plan to tax some prepared foods and beverages. The concern was that some of the items on the list to see the tax increase were not intended in the original budget bill passed earlier this year. GOP leaders still aren't happy with the new plan and believe a special session is needed to fix it. See what's in the new tax plan here.

An American man has died while proposing to his girlfriend underwater during a vacation in Tanzania, NBC News reported. 

Steven Weber drowned while asking Kenesha Antoine to marry him at an island resort off the east coast of Africa Thursday.

Antoine shared the news of Weber’s death on her Facebook page, saying that he “never emerged from those depths.”

She also posted a video of the proposal.

In it Weber can be seen holding a handwritten note in a waterproof bag up to the window of an underwater room — part of a luxurious offshore water cabin that the couple was staying in at The Manta Resort, off Pemba Island.

“I can’t hold my breath long enough to tell you everything I love about you but everything I love about you I love more every day,” the note read.

He then flipped the note to show the other side, which read: "Will you please be my wife. Marry me?”

Weber then produced a ring before swimming up out of view.

It’s not clear from the post what happened after that. NBC News has reached out to Antoine for comment.

A Bridgeport woman who police said was wanted in connection to the murder of her husband has turned herself in.

Officers said 35-year-old Larise King surrendered herself just after midnight on Saturday.

Police obtained an arrest warrant for King charging her with conspiracy to commit murder and criminal liability for the acts of another the death of her husband, Dathan Gray.

Gray was shot and killed on July 27 while standing in front of his home on Newfield Avenue, according to authorities.

King agreed to surrender to police, but never showed up, police said.

She is being held on a $1,000,000 bond.

Officials said more arrests are to be expected in this case.

NBC Connecticut meteorologists are forecasting a very warm end to the summer season on Sunday.

High pressure off of the east coast will help to keep full sunshine and warm temperatures for the rest of the weekend into the first day of fall on Monday. Fall arrives officially at 3:50 a.m. on Monday.

Highs on Sunday will top out close to 80 at the shore and well into the middle and even upper 80s inland.

On Monday, we’ll be out ahead of a cold front. We’ll see an increase in humidity and warm temperatures continuing. There's a rising chance of showers Monday evening into Monday night as the cold front passes through.

The cold front will bring temperatures to more seasonable levels by Tuesday and Wednesday in the low 70s.

Dry weather looks to continue for the first week of fall into next weekend.

There are growing concerns in the Southeastern corner of Connecticut this weekend about the potentially deadly Triple E virus.

Eastern equine encephalitis is an extremely rare mosquito borne virus that has infected more than two dozen people this year. Among them are two in our state, one of whom died Friday.

Patricia Shaw was 77 years old and on Sunday, her community gathered to remember her at her church in East Lyme.

“We are here to pray for her family because it’s not easy, of course, with sudden loss,” Fr. Brian Maxwell at St. Matthias Church said.

“Pat was a very kind and gentle woman. She loved bringing her dog, Angel, here and read books and was very talkative,” said Fr. Brian of the late mother and wife.

Triple E kills a third of all people who get. Those who do survive it can often have long term neurological problems.

Before this year, the last time someone in Connecticut had been infected and died from the virus was back in 2013. That person was bitten in early October.

State health officials said mosquitoes stop being active after the first heavy frost of the year.

Until then, families in the affected areas of the state have been advised to avoid outdoor activity from dusk until dawn and schools have shifted their sport practice schedules to end earlier.

Police are looking for a suspect after a store in New London was robbed Saturday night.

Police said they received a call for an armed robbery from CVS Pharmacy on Bank Street at around 8:30 p.m.

The robber was described as a black male, clean shaven, between 5'7" and 5'10" with a stocky build. He was wearing a gray hoodie, a black baseball style cap, a black backpack and jeans at the time of the robbery, according to police.

The suspect is believed to have stolen approximately $1,400 in cash.

Police said that while a gun was not clearly displayed at the time of the robbery, an employee reported that the man was holding a dark colored object while insinuating he had a gun.

No injuries were reported.

Police are investigating the incident. Anyone with information is asked to call New London Police.
