Bourne police identify person who died in crash with tractor-trailer
BOURNE Elena Picco, 37, of Bourne, has been identified as the person who was killed Sunday afternoon in a two-vehicle crash involving a tractor-trailer on Sandwich Road.
The Bourne Police Department said in a Facebook post Sunday that the driver of a 2019 Nissan Sentra, who was later identified as Picco, crossed over the center line and collided with the tractor-trailer, which was traveling eastbound on Sandwich Road along the Cape Cod Canal.
Picco was killed in the crash, police said. The driver of the tractor-trailer was uninjured.
The Bourne police and fire departments, along with Massachusetts State Police, were on scene shortly after 5 p.m. The crash forced a portion of Sandwich Road to close in both directions Sunday afternoon. Traffic was detoured to the Scenic Highway.
Some videos and pictures posted on social media in the days since last week s attack on the U.S. Capitol show police officers posing with some of those who broke into the building. But police chiefs on the Cape and Islands say that none of their personnel were in Washington on Jan. 6.
While some Capitol police officers, including Eugene Goodman and Brian Sicknick, who died during the riot inside the Capitol, have been hailed as heroes for their response to the incident, there have also been calls to investigate whether there was support for the insurrection from inside the Capitol building itself. There have also been questions about whether law enforcement officials from around the country were involved in the building s breach last week.
