A fleeing 17-year-old reform school parolee, with two Metropolitan District policemen firing in the air a few yards behind him, broke up Business School tranquility at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon, climaxing a three-mile auto and foot pursuit in front of Chase Hall.
Fugitive Nunzio LoPresti of Waban, characterized by police officials as "working his way up to Sing Sing," was spotted by a patrol car two miles west of Anderson Bridge in a vehicle reported stolen from Watertown.
