Store owner sues police harassment claim after arrest
A Syracuse store owner says he was wrongfully arrested on Friday and alleges a police officer threatened to send him back to Jerusalem. Uthman, 22, denies possessing a weapon as a convicted felon, says the rifle belonged to his mother, and notes the gun was found during a store search tied to a bottle of suspect baby formula. He was released Saturday and faces court later.

Court Rules Electronic Monitoring Is Not Probation
The New York Court of Appeals ruled that electronic monitoring cannot be used as a condition of probation, deeming it punitive rather than rehabilitative. In Onondaga County, officials defend its use for many home confinement cases, citing cost savings and social benefits, while judges lament the split decision and chaos in local courts.
