Two serious safety incidents involving students continued this week to concern the community as officials in the Springs and East Hampton School Districts addressed the issues with parents.

A photograph of a dirt-spattered bolt without a nut was highlighted in a National Transportation Safety Board preliminary report on Kent Feuerring’s fatal seaplane crash in the early afternoon of Oct. 6.

On Oct. 25, April Gornik and her husband were walking along Route 114 on North Haven when she was struck from behind, on her shoulder, by the passenger-side mirror of a pickup truck, which then sped by. The accident has renewed calls to lower the speed limit on that stretch of the road.

Talk about the deadliest catch: A Rhode Island-based trawler fishing off Block Island on Oct. 26 hauled in an unexploded World War II-era depth charge that was later safely detonated by the United States Navy.
