At approximately 12:30pm today, a tractor trailer truck traveling South
on Central Street moved out of the way of an oncoming vehicle heading
North. This caused the driver of the truck to move to the right to give
the vehicle more room, and through no fault of the weather, uprooted a
tree directly in front of Congressman Michael E Capuano’s home at 172
Central Street. The tree suffered the only injury and the scene was
cleared quickly, thanks to the quick work of the DPW.
