Incidents

On July 30, 2019 at 11:00 a.m. Officer Shore spoke with a female reporting party who stated she had listed an apartment for rent in Wellesley and was informed by another Wellesley resident that there was a posting on Craigslist for the same apartment that appeared suspicious.  The ad had different contact information.  The reporting party contacted Craigslist and the ad was removed.  She was advised to file a report with the police department to document the incident.

On July 30, 2019 at 2:38 p.m. Officer Hughes was dispatched to Wellesley Free Library about a suspicious male party who was asking women personal questions and making them feel uncomfortable.  The male party from Hudson was issued a letter of no trespass.  The report is incomplete at this time and no further information is available.
