Today's Police Log

Vodka delivery trucks and fishing for squid feature today.

• At 10:15 a.m., there was a report that a vodka delivery truck struck a pole on Lee Street, causing the pole to wiggle. The DPW determined there was no damage and believe the truck may have only hit a sign. I will keep a lookout for vodka delivery trucks: I could use some right now.


• At 11:10 a.m., a shotgun was turned in for destruction.


• At 12:17 p.m., there was a report of someone burning weeds with a blowtorch on Maple Street.


• At 9:34 p.m., a caller reported that there was a large group of fishermen on Commercial Street fishing off the dock and getting squid ink everywhere, including his boat. The fishermen moved to the proper area. Squid ink is a major pollutant, it seems.
