NORWALK By STEVE KOBAK Hour Staff Writer A 21-year-old city man was charged Friday with participating in two of the string of delivery-man robberies that took place in Norwalk in late 2009. Daniel Smith, who is currently incarcerated at the Bridgeport Correctional Center, was answering to charges stemming from a March 2009 armed robbery when police served a warrant for his arrest in court. Police arrested Smith on June 9 on a warrant for the March 2009 robbery and investigators had said Smith was likely involved in other area robberies. The latest allegations against Smith stem from two separate pizza delivery-man robberies that took place in December 2009. Smith is alleged to have taken part in the Dec. 2 robbery of an East Avenue Pizza employee. The victim in that case was lured to a fake address on Ohio Avenue and robbed by two men, one of whom held a machete to the victim's throat, police said. The thieves took some cash, two pizzas and a GPS from the victim, police said.
NORWALK By STEVE KOBAK Hour Staff Writer The Marine Unit of the Norwalk Police Department helped rescue three boys who had drifted into Long Island Sound and capsized their boats late Thursday morning. The boys were taking sailing lessons at the Tokeneke Club -- a private beach club in Darien -- and heavy winds blew their dinghies into the sound, police said. The Marine Unit received a radio transmission about the sailing mishap at 10:48 a.m. and three officers set out to rescue the boys, according to police. The officers came upon an 8-year-old boy whose vessel had capsized near a buoy and they pulled him aboard the police boat, police said. The boy was crying and nervous but uninjured, according to police. Meanwhile, a lobsterman had located two of the young sailors between Green's Ledge and Sheffield Island and pulled them onto his lobster boat, police said.
