Police on Sunday arrested a 48-year-old Stratford man who brought a firearm to a church service held at New Canaan High School. At about 9:20 a.m. on July 13, officers working security at NCHS for Grace Church were approached by a representative of the church regarding a person they said was acting suspicious and possibly carrying a firearm, according to a police report. The church rep pointed out the man to New Canaan Police, the report said. As he entered the building, officers noticed a bulge in the small of his back underneath his shirt, it said. He admitted to carrying a firearm when police talked to him, it said.
He was charged with possession of a weapon on school grounds, a felony offense.
