“Whoopsie…” [HN Photos & Notes]

  ABOVE: Barnstable Police are investigating what, exactly, caused a single SUV to ram into a light pole on Bearses Way in Hyannis earlier in the week. The occupants were evaluated by Hyannis FD Rescue but did not require transport to hospital. The driver showed no signs of intoxication.       ABOVE: Troopers continue to make their presence known in the Hyannis area (God bless ’em).  The above HN photos are from earlier in the week, when troopers reportedly spotted a pickup truck entering onto Bearses Way from Route 132, while traveling on the wrong side of a traffic island.  Upon further investigation, it was learned the driver did not have a valid driver’s license.  The driver was subsequently arrested on criminal motor vehicle charges…  HN REMINDER: The defendant is presumed to be innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.   ABOVE: “Go Bruins!” (HN photo from outside of Gannon’s Tavern, earlier in the week…)   ABOVE: What started as a possible disturbance involving a man and a woman near the intersection of Route 132 and Strawberry Hill Road earlier in the week, ended up being just more of the typical late-night Hytown [horse-bleep]… and really no big deal.  In the end, officers were able to help a homeless man find an ambulance ride to Cape Cod Hospital for some sort of nagging foot injury… so the entire thing didn’t end up being a colossal waste of everyone’s time after all. THIS JUST IN…      ABOVE: *** UPDATE  ***  The vehicle that nearly rolled into a historic U.S. Post Office in Cotuit last week ended up being stolen, sources say…  [DEVELOPING] HN NOTE: The above Hyannis News photos capture a very small fraction of the police activity in the Mid-Cape area in recent days.  The above images are followed by basic descriptions, not comprehensive reports. All individuals, whether suspects or potential suspects, are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
