DEEP RIVER, Conn. (WHDH) — The man accused of stabbing six people in a pair of incidents on the South Shore Saturday is also expected to face charges in connection with a homicide in Connecticut, police confirmed. 

Jared Ravizza was arrested in Sandwich, Mass. after he allegedly stabbed four girls at an AMC theater in Braintree and stabbed two people at a McDonald’s restaurant in Plymouth, according to police and prosecutors. 

Hours earlier, Connecticut State Police said, investigators were on scene in Deep River Connecticut after receiving a report of a disturbance at a home on Merriwold Lane near 3:30 p.m. 

Police said a trooper learned a suspect approached the home and threw a shovel through a front door window pane.

As their investigation continued, police said, authorities searched a nearby residence and found an adult man “with visible injuries” on the property. 

The man was pronounced dead at the scene and was later identified as 70-year-old Bruce Feldman of West Hartford, Conn., according to police. 

Police said investigators determined Ravizza had been at the home with Feldman earlier in the day and found personal items on the scene.

Police searched for Ravizza and his vehicle before learning he had traveled to Massachusetts. 

Near 7:30 p.m., Connecticut State Police said, Massachusetts authorities told them Ravizza had been arrested. 

Police in Connecticut said there was no ongoing threat to the public as of early Tuesday afternoon. 

While Ravizza faces charges in Massachusetts, police said their investigation into the Connecticut homicide was ongoing, with criminal charges pending. 

Ravizza appeared in court in connection with the Plymouth stabbings on Tuesday and was ordered to undergo a psychiatric evaluation. 

He is expected to appear in court in connection with the Braintree stabbings at a later date.

Ravizza’s attorney had no comment when approached outside the courthouse in Plymouth

Virginia family gets keys to Habitat for Humanity’s first 3D-printed home in the US

By
(CNN) — One Virginia family received the keys to their new  3D-printed home  in time for Christmas. The home is Habitat for Humanity’s first 3D-printed home in the nation,  according to a Habitat news release. Janet V. Green, CEO of Habitat for Humanity Peninsula and Greater Williamsburg, told CNN it partnered with Alquist, a 3D printing company, earlier this year to begin the process. The 1,200-square-foot home has three bedrooms, two full baths and was built from concrete. The technology allowed the home to be built in just 12 hours, which saves about four weeks of construction time for a typical home. April Stringfield purchased the home through the  Habitat Homebuyer Program . She will move in with her 13-year-old son just in time for the holidays. “My son and I are so thankful,” Stringfield said in a  live feed streamed on Habitat’s Facebook  page. “I always wanted to be a homeowner. It’s like a dream come true.” To purchase the home, Stringfield logged hundreds of hours of

Lawsuit: High school football player says coaches forced him to eat pizza as punishment, violating religious beliefs

By
CANTON, Ohio (AP) — An Ohio high school football player who says coaches forced him to eat a pizza covered with pepperoni grease in violation of his religious beliefs is suing his former district and the ousted coaches. The former Canton McKinley High School athlete and his parents filed a federal civil rights suit this week seeking millions of dollars in damages and alleging violations of his religious freedom and constitutional rights. The athlete says in the lawsuit that coaches were notified he doesn’t eat pork or pork residue as a member of the Hebrew Israelite religious faith, but that they ordered him to eat the pizza as punishment for missing an offseason workout — and indicated his spot on the team was at risk if he didn’t. The coaches say the player chose to remove pepperoni and eat the pizza rather than an alternative food. They weren’t aware it violated his religious beliefs, according to a  defamation case they filed  previously against the teen’s father, his attorney a

Bergeron, Pastrnak and Bruins finish off Capitals in 5 games

By
WASHINGTON (AP) — Patrice Bergeron and David Pastrnak dazzled on offense, Tuukka Rask was rock solid in net and the Boston Bruins are moving on to the second round of the playoffs. Bergeron scored twice at crucial times after Pastrnak’s  highlight-reel  goal, Rask made 40 saves and the Bruins eliminated the Washington Capitals in five games with a 3-1 victory Sunday night. Bergeron delivered the dagger with 7:35 left to set up a second-round showdown against either the Pittsburgh Penguins or New York Islanders. Chants of “TUUKK!” emanated from a large group of black and gold-clad Boston fans who were part of the limited-capacity sellout crowd of 5,333. Those were occasionally interrupted by “We want the Cup!” — the trophy the Bruins last won a decade ago after a 39-year title drought. They’re 12 wins away, thanks to their best players dominating in Game 5. Pastrnak made it look easy putting the puck behind his back and through his legs, assisted on Bergeron’s first goal and was par
