Search Warrant for stolen property. 1


Total amount of fines imposed, $893.00.


The summary shows a gain of 36 arrests and $423 in fines over last year.


There were several serious cases reported to the department during the year. The most serious was the shooting of Rocco Sestito on October 1st by Vincenzo Gagliardi. Sestito was shot in the abdomen and was on the danger list two weeks at the Massachusetts General Hospital. He has since recovered suf- ficiently to do light work. Gagliardi is at large.


Several arrests and convictions have been made in the above mentioned cases.


Liquor seizures.


235


The unlawful sale of liquor has caused the department a great deal of work.


Complaints for minor offences, such as fruit and vegetable stealing, illegal gaming, destroying fences, pulling down stone walls and disturbances on Sundays in outlying districts, have been numerous and could be reduced materially by the addition of an automobile to the department. The expense of mainte- nance and operating same would be less than we expended under existing conditions.


Four houses and four stores were burglarized; about $300 worth of property stolen.


More than half of the stolen property has been recovered, one conviction made. We will ask for indictment of one who is now being held for Grand Jury in Plymouth County for similar offences committed there. He has admitted to us that he burglarized two houses in Braintree and stole three bicycles.


In conclusion, I wish to thank all who have in any way assisted the Police Department during the year.


AMOS J. LORING,


Chief of Police.
