Chaumont

Derek Lavarnway, a 44-year-old political independent in Chaumont, New York, said his main concern is mental health.

When he reached the American headquarters in Chaumont, France, where he would be based for the rest of the war, he told her all about that, too.

Police were first called to the synagogue around 11 a.m. and people were evacuated from the surrounding neighborhood soon after that, FBI Dallas spokeswoman Katie Chaumont said.

At nearby Chaumont, a vegan bakery, a line of largely masked people snaked across the tiny storefront.

“We saw lions this morning, buffalo, wild ostrich,” Chaumont told Reuters.
