Patrol officers brave torrential rain as they rush toward Hyannis hotel room… [and other HN photos]

Above HN photos: In the pre-dawn hours of October 13, 2025, Barnstable Police patrol officers brave torrential rain as they rush toward a potentially volatile scene inside a Hyannis hotel room. The call came in around 4:00 a.m. via a 911 text from a woman reporting an assault, stating she was hiding in a bathroom with a one-year-old child while the alleged suspect slept in the room. With a room key in hand, officers entered and confronted a male with a Maine driver’s license and a history of out-of-state burglary and drug charges, according to radio transmissions. The scene remains active, with several detectives now involved in the ongoing investigation. A woman was transported to Cape Cod Hospital and later to Barnstable Police Headquarters, described as being a “prisoner” by the transporting patrolwoman, hinting at a complex and unfolding case.

[10/14/25 UPDATE: The woman described as a “prisoner” was actually from a separate domestic that happened at the same time as the hotel call. The woman from the separate domestic was treated for glass in her foot… she was also under arrest, sources say. Regarding the hotel call, a woman was also transported to CCH from that scene as well… but not under arrest.)



Above HN photos: Multiple police and firefighters rushed to Hiramar Road in Hyannis early Sunday morning after a patrolman came across two people who appeared to be overdosing inside a Lexus SUV with Georgia plates. A young man and woman were both conscious and alert by the time HN arrived on scene… (and at the time of this photo description it remains uncertain whether they had actually been “overdosing.”) Upon learning both were okay, an ambulance crew stood down, and patrol officers returned their medical bags to their cruisers. Both individuals live locally. The young adult male passenger was taken into protective custody for intoxication. The Lexus SUV ended up being towed by police.


Above HN photos: At around 2:38 a.m. Sunday morning, Barnstable Police patrol officers were notified about a woman sound asleep inside a running SUV in the Wendy’s drive-thru. It was a potentially dangerous situation because the brake lights were activated and the SUV could have still been in gear. The first patrolman on scene was able to open the woman’s door, reach over and quickly turn off the engine. Normally these scenes end in a drunk driving arrest, but the young woman exited and showed no signs of intoxication. The woman reportedly told officers she currently suffers from narcolepsy…
