| DEER KILLS DEADLINE! Cape Cod Times Driver Dodges Bambi, Demolishes Stone Driveway Column ? Undelivered Papers Hauled to Tow Yard Thursday November 12, 2026 |
|
CENTERVILLE, MASSACHUSETTS ? A Cape Cod Times delivery driver told police he swerved to avoid a deer early this morning on Bumps River Road and ended up taking out a stone driveway column instead.
The crash happened around 3 a.m. in the area of 988 Bumps River Road. Police say the driver lost control after the near-miss with the deer and plowed through the stone marker. He was shaken up but refused an ambulance.
His vehicle, still fully loaded with copies of today's Cape Cod Times, was completely disabled in the crash. The SUV ? newspapers and all ? was towed to a nearby towing company lot. Several people, possibly coworkers, stopped by the scene to check on him. He told them he was fine and accepted a ride from the scene.
A member of the Barnstable County Sheriff's Crime Scene Unit responded to photograph the wreckage, and the Barnstable Police Department is investigating. What happens to the undelivered newspapers now sitting at the tow yard remains unclear.

| Day 6: SWAT and Firefighters Re-Search Area of W. Barnstable Cranberry Bogs in Ongoing Search for Clare Fearon Tuesday November 10, 2026 |
|
WEST BARNSTABLE, MASSACHUSETTS ? The multi-agency search for 76-year-old Clare Fearon entered its sixth day Tuesday morning as local firefighters and members of the Cape Cod regional SWAT team assembled near the J.A. Jenkins & Sons cranberry bogs off Parker Road. The teams fanned out across terrain that had already been covered in earlier efforts, with instructions issued to two separate groups of SWAT members and firefighters drawn from police and fire departments across the Cape.
Barnstable Police provided the following update late Monday on the prior day's efforts: coordinated operations involving the Barnstable Police Department Detective Division, Barnstable patrol officers, Massachusetts State Police patrol units, and the Massachusetts State Police K9 Unit failed to locate Fearon. An aerial search by the Massachusetts State Police Air Wing was planned for that night.
Investigators have refined the search using nationally recognized search management practices, combining historical data on the behavior of missing and lost persons with information developed during the investigation to prioritize areas with the highest probability of locating her. Key sightings reported by residents have helped shape those efforts. On Friday, November 6, detectives learned from one resident that Fearon was seen in the area of 461 Parker Road at approximately 10:30 a.m. on November 5. A second resident reported seeing her in front of 298 Parker Road around 11:00 a.m. the same morning.
Detectives also confirmed Friday that part of Fearon's regular routine included driving with a family member to the Barnstable Market at 3220 Main Street in Barnstable. Surveillance footage from the market provided the description of the clothing she was last known to be wearing: a blue shirt and black pants. Police noted that an ?enhanced? photograph of Fearon has been circulating online; the Barnstable Police Department did not release that image, which appears to have been created from the market surveillance footage.
At this time, investigators have received no information suggesting Fearon's disappearance is suspicious, and there is no reason to believe there is any danger to the public. Anyone with information about her whereabouts, or who may have video footage that could assist investigators, is urged to contact the Barnstable Police Department at 508-778-3874.

The driver of the heavily damaged pickup truck sustained relatively minor injuries and was not transported to the hospital. The Barnstable Police Department investigated the cause of the crash. In the photos above, firefighters work to pry open the engine compartment to disconnect the battery, reducing the fire hazard before the vehicle is towed.
ABOVE: Barnstable and Yarmouth police officers conducted a recent traffic stop near the town line in West Yarmouth during the early morning hours. The vehicle's license plate was completely obscured by a black substance. The adult male and female occupants, both from the Boston area, had significant prior police histories, though neither had active warrants. Officers observed a container of prescription medication; neither occupant could produce a valid prescription, and the medication was confiscated. No other drugs were found. After the driver cleaned the substance from the license plate, the couple was sent on their way.
