## Resource

A 19-year-old man, Ronald Fischer, arrested for a fatal pedestrian bridge stabbing, is now facing murder charges — the same suspect who vanished in 2005 while wanted for rape and has been on Rhode Island’s Most Wanted list for 20 years. Meanwhile, safety upgrades are being planned for next year’s Whaling City Festival after a separate triple stabbing disrupted the event. On the national stage, Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin revealed thousands of noncitizens found on voter rolls across several states, calling for state cooperation to bolster election security.
