Blackstone Police

UMass Dartmouth has hired a firm led by former Boston Police Commissioner Ed Davis to investigate accusations that the university covered up an alleged sexual assault by one of its campus police officers in 2010.

The Blackstone Police Department is charging a juvenile for allegedly shooting and killing a cat with an arrow.

Acting Chief Gregory Gilmore says Blackstone Police received a call Thursday night regarding a pet cat that had been shot with an arrow on Old Mendon Street.
