Man jailed after shooting

NORTH HAVERHILL—Before a Haverhill man allegedly fired three gunshots at his mother on Friday morning, he told her he poured bleach into her coffee, threatened to burn her house down, and said he would make her vanish “just like Maura Murray.” On Saturday, police charged Scott Blake, 44, with reckless conduct with a deadly weapon, criminal threatening with a deadly weapon, and three misdemeanors.
