Former Newark Factory Identified as Toxic 'Superfund Site

State officials and the Newark Public Schools are close to a deal on restoring control of some financial matters to the district. The public schools have been run by the state for nearly 20 years.

A site in Newark has been proposed for addition to the federal “Superfund” list, which identifies areas contaminated by chemical pollution.

The New York Giants Steve Weatherford joined Mayor Luis Quintana in handing out presents to homeless children in the city.

A city man admitted he took part in some of a string of armed robberies throughout North Jersey this year.
