NEW ENGLAND — A body recovered from the Merrimack River. A ghost gun discovered during a Boston traffic stop. A confrontation involving knives inside a Dorchester CVS. A deadly motorcycle crash in Connecticut. And in Worcester, police say an investigation into neighborhood complaints led them to synthetic marijuana, alcohol, flavored tobacco products and more than $3,000 in cash.
It was a series of separate public safety investigations across New England, with authorities in Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Connecticut investigating cases ranging from an unexplained death to firearms and drug allegations.
