With great weather forecast all week, Westport Moms quickly organized a Shopping Stroll.
Set for this Friday (October 9, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., Elm Street courtyard across from Serena & Lily), it’s drawn vendors from the tri-state area selling unique merchandise: waterproof blankets, winter wear, pajamas, athleisure, masks, fun home accessories, jewelry and more.
The Moms hope Church Street and Main Street stores will put merchandise outside, and restaurants will offer lunch and coffee discounts. Masks are (of course) required.
Yesterday afternoon, a man robbed the People’s United Bank branch inside Stop & Shop.
A suspect has been tied to 3 other bank robberies, in Fairfield, Norwalk and Shelton. Westport Police ask for the public’s help in identifying the suspect. A reward of up to $1,500 is offered.
The detective bureau can be reached at 203-341-6080. [NOTE: The video originally posted with this story is now inoperable.]

After graduating from Staples High School in 2015, Spencer Gabor headed to Fordham University to study business.
But he’d always liked drawing. As he pursued his degree he spent every moment outside class drawing, learning Adobe Suite, and taking on art projects. He reached out to startups and did pro bono work, just to amass a portfolio.
Today he’s illustrating and designing for major brands around the world, like NPR and (go figure) Marcus by Goldman Sachs.
Dribble — a website for design professionals — recently interviewed him about his “drastic but fulfilling” career change. Click here for the full story.
