May 15—NORWICH — Representatives from religious faith groups pledged Monday to take the lead in trying to reduce gun violence in the wake of the fatal shooting last week of a 19-year-old man at the Norwich Apartments complex. Members of the Norwich Area Interfaith Association held an hour-long online meeting Monday with Jeremy Stein, executive director of Connecticut Against Gun Violence, to hear ideas on ways to reduce gun violence. The interfaith association plans to organize community sessions with the public, police and political leaders and CAGV leaders.
