A 25-year-old Boston employee was dismissed after a violent altercation during a traffic stop on July 30. The individual now faces eight felony charges stemming from the confrontation with a state trooper.

Retired State Trooper Michael Snell, who was sickened by his service during 9/11, will be honored in services held Wednesday and Thursday in Potsdam. The North Country community remembers his dedication and sacrifices.
