Truck Cuts Power on Changebridge Road

Hundreds of residents and area businesses lost power Wednesday when a tractor-trailer making a delivery to a Changebridge Road business snagged power lines near the entrance, snapping two utility poles, and sparking a fire.  No one was injured, but officials say it could have been disastrous. The accident occurred minutes after a tanker delivered a full supply of fuel to the Valero gas station adjacent to Barry's  Pharmacy, the delivery site.

Montville VFW Keeps a Memorial Day Tradition

Gerald Gemian remembers searching in vain for his fellow soldiers at the World War II Memorial inauguration ceremony three years ago in Washington, D.C. 

"I had a big sign with my name on it, and the islands that I fought on, and nobody recognized me,"the 84-year-old recalled on Wednesday. "Everybody in my company is gone."  See Daily Record.   Discuss on Montville Blog.

Mustang Stampede!

Montville's team effort leads to state victory; Mustangs now 23-6! - As "Welcome to the Jungle" by Guns N' Roses roared through a pair of speakers just a few feet from where he was sitting, Montville's Charles Matarazzo voiced concern while watching his teammates bounce around energetically during pre-game warmups. "I don't think we need to get any more pumped," he said.

Two hours later, Matarazzo's worries proved needless. Montville crushed Morris Hills, 12-2, in five innings, thriving off the strength of its big bats and steady glovework.  See Daily Record.
