- Police Warn of Man Disabling Young Women's Vehicles in Mass.by Mike Pescaro on May 28, 2022 at 6:12 pm
Police in multiple Massachusetts communities are warning the public that a man has been disabling young women’s vehicles and offering them rides home. The Milford Police Department said in a Facebook post Saturday that a man in his late 30s has been flattening tires in the area and filling gas tanks with water. He is reported to be driving a blue Chevrolet Impala with Massachusetts plates. “If your vehicle has a flat tire DO NOT try and start it,” the department wrote. “Call Milford Police at 508-473-1113.” Police departments in Franklin, Bellingham and Holliston also put out warnings. “Over the past week there have been local reports of an individual seeking to disable cars being operated by young females. In these situations, the individual may let air from a tire or add a gas tank contaminant, then approach the female to offer help in the form of a battery pack, air compressor or a ride,” police in Holliston said. “As in all situations, be aware that individuals offering help may have in fact been involved in orchestrating the situation. If your car becomes disabled, wait in a safe place for a friend, family member, or AAA to respond.” “The individual currently being investigated into this matter was spotted in town yesterday afternoon,” Franklin Police said. “If your vehicle is tampered with or breaks down shortly after starting, give us a call.” “Bellingham Police are also investigating an incident involving this individual,” that department said in a Facebook post. “It is suspected that he tampered with a vehicle in the Charles River Center then approached the female owner when she found her vehicle was disabled.” Bellingham Police warned the public to be vigilant and report any suspicious activity, recommending parking in well-lit areas and not to walk to vehicles alone if possible. Police in Holliston also tagged the Medway Police Department in their Facebook post, but that page had not posted about the investigation as of Saturday afternoon.

- Mass. Announces Major Changes to COVID Testing, Quarantine Protocols in Schoolsby Mike Pescaro on May 28, 2022 at 5:36 pm
Massachusetts will end its state-run school COVID-19 testing program after this school year, state officials announced, with other educational testing and isolation policy changes being put into effect this week. Beginning in the fall of 2022, the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education says the state will stop supplying self-tests “or other COVID testing services” to schools. “The end of the 2021-22 school year will mark the end of the state-run, state-coordinated K-12 testing program, although districts and schools will have access to state-provided self-tests to conduct symptomatic testing themselves during summer school,” DESE Commissioner Jeffrey Riley said in a memo to school officials Tuesday. For the remainder of the 2021-2022 school year, “self-tests may now also be made available for the school community more widely,” the memo said, adding that they may be provided before in-person, school-sponsored events like proms and graduations. For summer programs, “staffing, software, and all other services currently provided through CIC health will no longer be available through the state-run program,” meaning school districts will need to provide staffing for in-school symptomatic testing, DESE said in the memo. Next school year, when the state stops providing self-tests, “DESE and [the Department of Public Health] strongly recommend that schools and districts interested in implementing their own testing program limit that program to symptomatic rapid testing only,” according to the memo. “Schools and districts may purchase self-tests through the statewide contract.” Additionally, the Department of Public Health has announced that effective May 25, children exposed to COVID-19 who are not experiencing symptoms are no longer required to quarantine from K-12, child care or recreational camp settings. Testing is also no longer required. “Children who are identified as close contacts may continue to attend programming as long as they remain asymptomatic,” the department said in updated guidance on the state website. “Those who can mask should do so until Day 10. A test on Days 2 and 5 is recommended, but not required.” The new policy does not outline any difference in protocols between vaccinated and unvaccinated children in these settings, a distinction that remains in effect in the state’s isolation and quarantine guidance for the general public. Children must isolate at least five days if they test positive, the state said. If they are able to mask, they may return after five days if they are asymptomatic or if their symptoms have improved and they have been fever-free for 24 hours. “If the child is unable to mask, they must have a negative test on Day 5 or later in order to return to programming prior to day 11,” the state’s guidance reads. If children have symptoms but test negative for COVID-19 onsite, they can stay at school or in their programs. “Best practice would also include wearing a mask, if possible, until symptoms are fully resolved,” the state added. If a symptomatic child cannot be tested immediately, “they should be sent home and allowed to return to their program or school if they test negative, or they have been fever-free for 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medication and their symptoms have resolved, or if a medical professional makes an alternative diagnosis,” the state said in its guidance. ”A negative test is strongly recommended for return if the latter two conditions are met.” Additionally, the state says rapid antigen tests are preferred to PCR tests in educational settings “in most situations for the purposes of exiting isolation or quarantine.” The state notes that staff should continue to follow protocols of DESE or the Department of Early Education and Care, depending where they work.

- Early Morning Fire in Gloucester Displaces 3 Familiesby Evan Ringle on May 28, 2022 at 11:46 am
