Wow! It reads like something out of a current TV program. Ruth From: CitizenObserver <alerts(a)citizenobserver.com> Reply-To: <alerts(a)citizenobserver.com> Date: Monday, June 9, 2014 5:10 PM To: Ruth Ryals <rryals(a)comcast.net> Subject: Cambridge PD: CITYWIDE Alert - Cambridge Police Arrest Suspect Carrying Loaded Revolver; Also Arrest Suspect Involved in Robbery Citizen Observer Cambridge PD: CITYWIDE Citizen Alert Cambridge Police Arrest Suspect Carrying Loaded Revolver; Also Arrest Suspect Involved in Robbery The Cambridge Police made a pair of arrests yesterday. Below are the details for both incidents: Cambridge Police arrested a suspect yesterday due in part to focused efforts in the area of Main Street and Windsor Street. While on patrol on Bishop Allen Drive at approximately 5:30 p.m. on Sunday, June 8, Cambridge Police observed two individuals walking. One of the individuals was known to have a history of incidents in the community, including possession of a firearm. An officer tried speaking with the two individuals, but one of them acted suspiciously and fled when approached. Four officers initiated a pursuit on the suspect and, a short time later, Sarick Celicien, 21, 17 Barstow Street, Malden, was apprehended and a loaded revolver was recovered. He was arrested for carrying a Loaded Firearm without License and Resisting Arrest. The area of Main Street and Windsor Street was the site of a recent gunshot incident that occurred on May 26, 2014. The Cambridge Police had issued a Citizen Alert notifying residents of the incident. ³This arrest demonstrates quality persistence and collaboration by our officers to ensure that a potentially dangerous suspect and loaded firearm were taken off our streets,² said Deputy Superintendent Paul Ames. Additionally, Cambridge Police arrested a suspect in connection with a robbery that occurred on Massachusetts Avenue in Cambridge early yesterday morning at approximately 3 a.m. A Somerville resident reported he was walking home from a friend¹s house and was pushed to the ground from behind by at least two males. He was punched and kicked repeatedly and the suspects stole the victim¹s cell phone, a wallet that contained multiple debit/credit cards and keys. Later that morning and afternoon, his credit cards were used fraudulently in several locations, including a retail store in Somerville and an amusement park in New Hampshire. At approximately 7:15 p.m., the Cambridge Police observed a white vehicle that failed to stop at a stop sign on Fifth Street crossing over Cambridge Street. The driver of the white vehicle was recognized by officers from another motor vehicle stop on Friday night and video surveillance footage from the Somerville retail store, where the victim¹s credit card was used earlier in the day. During the stop, officers also located a photo of one of the vehicle¹s passengers riding a roller coaster at the New Hampshire amusement park. Fernando Martins, Jr., 22, 256 Hurley Street, Cambridge, was arrested by the Cambridge Police for Receiving Stolen Property Greater than $250. Separate charges were also filed by the Somerville Police. The details contained above are allegations. The suspect is presumed to be innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law. <http://www.elabs5.com/c.html?ufl=5&rtr=on&s=jaysy,w3s7,1d8,4koq,ksdg,8bry,m 3cn> Contact Information Contact Name: Jeremy Warnick, Director of Communications Contact Name: Contact Email: pio(a)cambridgepolice.org Contact Email: Contact Phone: 617-349-3237 Contact Phone: See More Details/Translate <http://www.elabs5.com/c.html?ufl=5&rtr=on&s=jaysy,w3s7,1d8,jwtk,mgxe,8bry,m 3cn> <http://www.citizenobserver.com/cov6/app/ncnews_aff.jsp?sender=rryals@comcas t.net&uid=5ed9efba77&p=2654&mid=1497895> Please do not reply to this email.

Go to: http://www.cambridgema.gov/cdd/projects/transportation/grandjunctionpathway. aspx From: Joseph Poirier <jpoirier20(a)gmail.com> Date: Monday, June 9, 2014 4:14 PM To: <psna(a)lists.portersquare.net> Subject: [PSNA] ! Grand Junction Path Meeting ! Attention Neighbors: Councillor Carlone has called the first meeting of the city¹s Transportation & Public Utilities Committee to discuss planning for the long-awaited Grand Junction Path. Given the tremendous development occurring in Cambridge and the Boston metro area (along with climate change), it has become increasingly important that we fast-track this project to completion. This cannot be done without pressure and vocal support from Cantabs united. Your attendance at this committee meeting will be crucial in showing community and taxpayer support for this project. Your personal comment on why this path needs to be completed yesterday will be even more effective. If you can make it, please come and fill the room with your positive vibes! The meeting is Wednesday, June 11th at 3:00PM, in Cambridge City Hall¹s Sullivan Chambers. joe _______________________________________________ PSNA mailing list PSNA(a)lists.portersquare.net http://lists.portersquare.net/listinfo.cgi/psna-portersquare.net

From: "Farooq, Iram" <ifarooq(a)cambridgema.gov> Date: Friday, June 6, 2014 2:31 PM To: Cambridge Conversations <cambridgeconversations(a)CambridgeMA.GOV> Subject: CAMBRIDGE CONVERSATIONS: More Information The Cambridge Conversations have begun, with the first two drop in sessions at Fresh Pond Day and the Kendall Square ECKOS meeting! These Conversations are the precursor to Cambridge¹s city-wide master plan process. Before the community launches into a multi-year master plan, we need a moment to talk, exchange ideas, and think about the best way to set up a process for the master plan. The initial conversations to be held in June 2014 are open ended discussions to hear concerns, thoughts, and ideas about the master plan and master plan process. The City has hired Kathryn Madden <http://www.maddenplanning.com/KathrynMadden.pdf> of the Madden Planning Group <http://www.maddenplanning.com/> to help facilitate the Cambridge Conversations. Kathryn has extensive experience with both master planning and community engagement. Click here for the current schedule <http://www.cambridgema.gov/CDD/News/2014/06/cambridgeconversations.aspx> of meetings. Find a location and time that works for you. If you can¹t make it to any of these meetings in June, don¹t worry. Send an email to CambridgeConversations(a)cambridgema.gov and we¹d be happy to schedule a time to come to your neighborhood group or other meeting later this summer or fall. There are many ways to join the conversation! Attend a community meeting: Three community meetings are scheduled <http://www.cambridgema.gov/CDD/News/2014/06/cambridgeconversations.aspx> to allow people to select a time and location that is most convenient. Each meeting will follow the same format. They are designed for listening and sharing ideas together as a group. There will be an informal open house; a brief introduction to our current conversations and how these relate to the future master plan; an interactive work session to allow people to share their ideas in casual conversation; and a wrap-up to talk about next steps. Or Stop by at a Drop-In Session: Over 17 drop-in sessions <http://www.cambridgema.gov/CDD/News/2014/06/cambridgeconversations.aspx> are available at different times and locations across the city. Each drop-in session has the same format. These are planned to make access more convenient for those who prefer to drop by briefly for informal conversations that may last only a few minutes or casual discussions that may engage others who happen to be visiting the table at the same time. Or Send an email with thoughts and ideas to CambridgeConversations(a)cambridgema.gov Or Comment on the CoUrbanize web page (coming soon) and Survey (coming soon) where you can also offer ideas. Meanwhile Look for our online updates on the CDD website <http://www.cambridgema.gov/CDD/News/2014/06/cambridgeconversations.aspx> .
