Deihim

Saugus Police issued a BOLO today for Rashad Deihim, 19, on charges of assault with intent to rape, kidnapping, indecent assault and battery on a person age 14 or older and posing or exhibiting a child in a sexual act.

By Stop Litter---Yes On 2 in 2014... - 9/20/14 - 7:20 pm

We need to stop litter and keep Massachusetts clean by spreading the word about the Yes on Question 2 campaign.

The Bottle Bill is the most effective recycling tool we have. Eighty percent of bottles covered by the Bottle Bill’s 5-cent deposit are recycled. Yes on Question 2 would add a bottle deposit to water, sports drinks, tea, juices, and other drinks that were not included in the original bill because they were not popular when the law was passed in 1982.

We need your vote on November 4 to update the Bottle Bill.

5-10-14 ducklings rescued in storm drain, Saugus

The Animal Rescue League of Boston comes through today with the save.

Specifically, one of the calves. He wants $3,000 and says that's non-negotiable, so don't even think of trying to bargain him down.

If you think like me. You too will know this stuff will be worth big money!! Plus it's a cool conversation piece.
