Hello, Anthony.

Hello again, everyone.

Welcome to another edition of the Inside Lowell Daily Pulse, the Thursday, October 29th edition of the Daily Pulse.

I'm your host, Teddy Panos, coming to you from the WellPoint Studios here in downtown Lowell.

And let me start by letting you in on a little bit of a secret here.

It's the Thursday, October 29th edition of the Daily Pulse, but we're actually recording today's discussion on Thursday, October 22nd.

The reason why, because, well, when you have an opportunity to interview the president of the UMass system and Lowell's favorite son, Marty Meehan, you record on his schedule, not on your own.

So UMass president Marty Meehan, thank you so much for making yourself available today.

Great to be

Justice from New Hampshire.

They found them in Lowell.

He came to Massachusetts.

I guess there's a lot of cover here in Massachusetts.

Because I remember I lived through the Massachusetts Renaissance.

Remember that? The Dukakis were ever president and everything was going well.

And Lowell revived and all the inner cities, the gateway cities and stuff.

We lost our mojo.

508, an escaped New Hampshire prisoner who had been on the run for almost a year, is now back in custody.

Police found him hiding out across state lines in Lowell.

New Hampshire prison officials say that Daquan Cromer walked away last December from a halfway house where he was serving an assault sentence.

A tip led to police to Salem, New Hampshire.

to a home there on Tuesday night, but Cromer allegedly drove off, but then he crashed his car and ran away.

And that prompted a shelter-in-place order up there in Salem.

Police tracking Cromer down to a house in Lowell, Massachusetts yesterday.

He now faces charges here in Massachusetts as well as up in New Hampshire.

One of the teams I wanted to mention, just in terms of the importance to the local community...

And as it relates to that sort of 2020 downsizing is the Lowell Spinners in Lowell, Massachusetts, named for the textile industry also, interestingly.

And they went away.

They just folded.

And that was just too much for some teams.

And so they just said, you know, we're, we're shutting down.

The Lowell spinners came back after a six year absence.

And it was this massive deal in Lowell, Massachusetts.

Police in Salem, New Hampshire, giving an update on the capture of an escaped fugitive.

Authorities say Dequan Cromer was taken into custody today in Lowell, hours after getting away from police at a home in Salem, New Hampshire.

Salem Police Lieutenant Robert Curley says he fled in a white BMW and struck a cruiser, eventually crashing his car and running

away on foot.

We searched for several hours.

In the early morning hours around 3 a.m., we developed information that led us to believe that Mr. Cromer had left the area and we lifted the shelter in place that we had put out.

Cromer was later located in Lowell, currently is in custody in Massachusetts.

Police say Cromer had escaped a Manchester, New Hampshire transitional unit last December.
