Alcohol leads to death of Acadia U. student
A 19-year-old male student has died after consuming a large amount of alcohol early last week. RCMP confirmed to CBC News that the teen died at the QEII Health Sciences Centre in Halifax on Thursday.

“I heart boobies” bracelets banned from schools
Some bracelets with a very eye-catching name are being banned from some provincial schools. The Keep A Breast Foundation has been selling bracelets that read “I heart boobies”. The bracelets, meant to inform about breast cancer, have been kicked out of Quispamsis Elementary School, near Saint John. Administrators there asked parents to not send their children to school with the bracelets, citing distraction of students as the concern. Closer to home, students at Minto Memorial High School, near Fredericton, have also been told not to bring the bracelets to school.

Motorists asked to be patient during bridge closure
Motorists are being asked to continue with their co-operation amidst the closure of the Princess Margaret Bridge. That message from Transportation and Infrastructure Minister Claude Williams as he toured the bridge yesterday (Wednesday). Due to wet weather over the summer, the bridge opening has been delayed until mid-October. The remainder of work on the bridge, including the pouring of concrete barrier walls and painting, requires a stretch of dry weather, something hard to come by this summer. The city hopes that with the completion of repairs on MacLaren Avenue and Forest Hill Road, traffic flows will improve.
Fatal accident downtown Wednesday
Fredericton Police are investigating a fatal accident in the downtown. Emergency crews were called to the intersection of Brunswick and York Streets at around 3:15 yesterday (Wednesday) afternoon. The accident involved a vehicle and a pedestrian. One person was taken to the Chalmers Hospital with what appeared to be serious injuries. The 52-year-old man died later in the evening. Motorists were told to stay away from the area until early evening. The investigation is ongoing.

Sentencing for Minto man postponed until Oct.
Sentencing has been postponed for a Minto man who earlier pleaded guilty to impaired driving causing bodily harm. The judge postponed sentencing for Justin Kenneth Foulkes because the Crown prosecutor was not available yesterday (Wednesday). In an earlier appearance, the court hears that RCMP were called to the scene of a single-vehicle accident at 4 a.m. on September 25 of last year on Route 10 in Hardwood Ridge. After their arrival, they found a car with three people in the ditch. Foulkes co-operated with police during the investigation that night. A male friend who was in the backseat had fractured his back and needed to wear a brace for three months. Foulkes will now be sentenced October 14.
