Dear fellow Hanoverians:
School vacation week is almost upon us, and it’s
supposed to get up to 70 degrees today. Hanover’s children will be
out in full force this afternoon…and good for them! With the change
in season, however, comes a cautionary note for all of us from our neighbors in
Norwell. Yes, this is Norwell news, but who is to say that a
similar situation won’t happen in Hanover today? It is too close
for comfort. Parents – enjoy the weather, and be vigilant with your
children. Our police need our support…and for all of us to be their
eyes and ears. Don’t hesitate to call them to report suspicious
behavior. The Hanover Police Business line is 781-826-3231, and of
course, in case of an emergency, dial 911.
This e-mail came from Chief Ross of the Norwell Police
Department. It’s validity has been ascertained, and no further incidents
have occurred since this past Tuesday:
On 04/14/09 at 1:52 PM a
suspicious incident was reported to the Norwell Police Department. A
resident that lives in the Central Street area called to report that there were
several children age 10-13 out playing on a front lawn. A blue van with
windows down the side and a stripe down the side drove down the dead end
road. The vehicle turned around and stopped before exiting. The
male party put down his window and then took a picture of the children and
drove off. There is no further description of the vehicle or operator at this
time. At this time we are asking anyone with information to call Norwell
Detectives at 1-781-659-7979 so we may identify this person and investigate
further to determine if any crime was committed.
