- New court documents reveal more about the events leading up to the death of 4-year-old Akari Cortes, who was hit and killed by a driver in Manchester in June.
According to court documents, Akari left her home around 4:14 a.m. and traveled nearly a mile before she was hit. Police say marijuana was found in her system at the time of her death. Documents also show police had found Akari outside her home alone on two previous occasions earlier that month.
Akari's parents are charged with risk of injury to a minor. The driver, Tarequel Ambia, is also facing charges. His arrest warrant says he was using his phone and driving at least 20 mph over the speed limit when he hit the child.

- Danbury leaders and immigration advocates say more than 60 people were detained during reported increased Immigration and Customs Enforcement activity in the city last week.
Danbury Unites for Immigrants says enforcement activity appeared quieter at the start of this week, but tensions remain high. Mayor Roberto Alves says some residents are afraid to go to work, stores or send their children to school, and reports school attendance is down 700 students this year.
Homeland Security has denied accusations that ICE arrests happened at school bus stops. Sen. Richard Blumenthal toured Danbury with the mayor, while Gov. Ned Lamont said he spoke with Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin about the enforcement.
NBC Connecticut has asked ICE to confirm the number of arrests and how many people detained were potentially accused of violent crimes.

- Gov. Ned Lamont visited Twelve Percent Beer Project in North Haven, where the owners say tariffs are increasing costs for aluminum, grains and other goods while customers spend less on beer.
Lamont blamed President Donald Trump’s policies, including tariffs, for contributing to the rising cost of living. Republican gubernatorial nominee Ryan Fazio said he disagrees with tariffs but argued that Lamont’s policies have raised taxes and made electricity more expensive.
The Budget Lab at Yale estimates tariffs implemented by Trump will cost the average family an additional $1,000 a year, while the newest round of tariffs on Canada will cost the average family about $25 a year.

- Federal immigration enforcement activity in Danbury is raising questions about a new Connecticut law that includes a ban on face coverings for agents and restrictions involving locations such as schools and churches without a warrant.
NBC Connecticut captured video Thursday showing agents wearing face coverings while apparently detaining someone. The Department of Homeland Security says masks protect agents from doxing and has sued Connecticut over the law, calling the ban unconstitutional. The law does not take effect until Oct. 1, and local and state officials say it may be difficult to enforce.
Community activists are calling on elected officials to take additional action, while lawmakers debate the impact and enforceability of the new law.

- Spotted lanternflies have been reported across Connecticut, and experts say the invasive insects are here to stay. But that doesn't necessarily mean their current numbers will last forever.
Researchers say spotted lanternflies don't pose a threat to people, children or pets, and there's little evidence they harm healthy, mature landscaped trees. However, they can gather in large clusters, leave behind a sticky mess and pose agricultural concerns for crops such as grapes.
Experts point to Pennsylvania, where spotted lanternflies have been established longer and numbers have started dropping. Over time, predators, diseases, parasites and other natural checks and balances could help Connecticut's ecosystem adjust.
Experts also explain the connection between spotted lanternflies and the invasive tree of heaven and what homeowners should know before trying to remove the tree.

Fazio called for higher standards, more support for students who need help with reading and math, eliminating certain mandates and allowing education funding to follow students. He also said he wants to eliminate waiting lists for charter schools.
Democratic lawmakers said Gov. Ned Lamont and the legislature have already pursued some of the ideas Fazio outlined, including reading standards and additional tutoring. They also raised concerns that allowing funding to follow students to charter schools could take money away from struggling public schools.
Both sides also addressed efforts to keep cellphones out of classrooms.
