Two Falmouth teenagers are facing assault and battery charges after they allegedly punched and kicked a Franklin teenager untilâand afterâhe was unconscious during a party at a home on Blacksmith Shop Road on August 15.
The father of one of the suspects, a 52-year-old Falmouth resident, will be charged with witness interference and obstruction of justice. He was arraigned in October and the charges were dismissed at the pretrial hearing, Police Chief Edward A. Dunne said. He said he only recently learned the charges were dropped and does not know why. Police filed charges again last week and have not been notified yet of a court date, he said.
Construction of a sewer system to serve the areas of Teaticket and Acapesket is projected for 2026.
âThe town has put up money for design and planning is currently underway, and this is the timetable,â Water Quality Management Committee chairman Eric T. Turkington told the select board on Monday, December 21. âThese two pieces both affect Great Pond, which except for Waquoit Bay, is the water body most in need of nitrogen reduction.â
While sewering will go a long way toward reducing nitrogen in Great Pond, it will not eliminate it.
âI will caution us, because 60 percent of the water that comes into this water body comes from the Coonamessett River system, sewering these two areas will get rid of a lot of the problem. It will not get rid of all of the problem,â Mr. Turkington said. âThere is a lot of water coming in that isnât coming from the neighborhood. It is coming from north of [Route] 28.â
