HYANNIS, Massachusetts – As you will see in the following HN “Video,” Barnstable patrol officers took a male into custody after he was reportedly entering parked vehicles on Pearl Street last evening. Officers initially had a difficult time finding out the male’s identity. He was taken into protective custody for being intoxicated. Once back at police headquarters, officers learned his identity and that he is a juvenile. According to radio transmissions, the juvenile male was taken in for the possible charge of Motor Vehicle B&E… but it’s uncertain what he will actually be charged with, if anything… and because of his age, official details will not be released.

POLICE RESPOND TO YARMOUTH RESTAURANT FOR SIMULTANEOUS OVERDOSES
Yarmouth, MA – Yarmouth Police responded to a local restaurant Thursday evening for an unconscious man who was not breathing. Yarmouth Fire Rescue was on scene and treating that man for an overdose when officers quickly identified another man was suffering from the effects of a potential overdose. Rescuers revived the unconscious man after conducting CPR and administering Narcan. The other man was also administered Narcan after he collapsed.
The two patrons had been sitting at the bar when one of them lost consciousness and passed out on his friend’s shoulder. An employee and other patrons noticed the emergency and helped place the unconscious man on the ground and began CPR. While CPR was administered the second man collapsed on the ground. Officers were able to determine that both men had voluntarily ingested drugs before entering the restaurant. The men were unsure about what they had ingested and were transported to Cape Cod Hospital for evaluation.

*** WATCH *** OVERDOSE SCARE TURNS OUT TO BE SLEEP-DEPRIVED LOCAL DIGGING FOR IMAGINARY WOMAN UNDERGROUND
HYANNIS – At 4:00 a.m. on the Cape, whenever someone reports an unresponsive female in a random parking lot, it’s a pretty safe bet that it’s some type of overdose. As you will see and hear in the following video, HN was right around the corner when the call came. HN carries Narcan in the vehicle at all times and I sometimes arrive at these scenes prior to first responders. This turned out NOT to be an overdose (Thank God), just an older sleep-deprived gentleman digging for an imaginary woman he believed to be buried outside of the bank, underneath some mulch. After the aforementioned drug and booze related stories from ealier in the evening, it was a huge relief to have this turn out to be a false alarm.
