Investigators say the suspect entered the Mirabito on Bartel (bar-TELL) Rd Saturday night around 7, fired off one round from a handgun, and threatened an employee. No one was injured and nothing from the store was stolen. The man was last seen wearing khaki pants, a green shirt, gloves, and a mask.

Cicero Police Chief Steve Rotunno said since taking over the department his goal has always been transparency.
“We received input from the community and from the town board,” Rotunno said Thursday during a phone interview. “It was long overdue.”
The department purchased 10 V-300 WatchGuard Body Worn Cameras in December, but they were not immediately installed by the company because of nationwide demand, Rotunno said.
“Body-worn cameras can be an invaluable tool for law enforcement agencies,” Rotunno said. “They can capture an unbiased record of incidents and increase agencies’ transparency and accountability, and, at the same time, assist in reducing liability to officers, the police department and Town of Cicero.”

Cicero, N.Y. Lisa Bustin was driving her 13-year-old son home from hockey practice in Syracuse when she started to not feel so well.
Bustin had just eaten a couple handfuls of peanuts as she waited for the practice to end, so she thought maybe she was having an allergic reaction. As she drove north on Route 481 in Cicero, she called her husband to ask him to get out Benadryl for when she arrived home in a few minutes.
