Just wanted to pass along the “no news” answer from the UConn police this afternoon.
A department spokesman says there still have been no arrests made in the Jasper Howard homicide. So is an arrest expected soon?
“I can’t comment on that,” Lt. Andrew Fournier said Wednesday.
(When Fournier says “No arrests have been made” he is of course discounting the breach of peace charges against 21-year-old Johnny Hood that may or may not be related.)
Police refuse to release the names of any suspects, including the Bloomfield man whose house was searched and who has been interviewed by the police according to his attorney.
When asked if there might be developments in the case soon, Fournier wasn’t perfectly clear.
“Not in the next couple of hours,” he said. “That’s kind of the time frames we’re looking at.”
