On May 6 at approximately 6:50 p.m., an officer conducted a traffic stop on Highland Avenue near Gould Street for an unrestrained child violation, discovering that the vehicle’s registration plates were attached from another car.
The owner/operator, a 39-year-old Boston woman, will be summoned to court for a number plate violation/attaching, unregistered motor vehicle and child under 8 years old without a car seat restraint.
Police made an arrest on May 9 around 10 a.m. after stopping a vehicle for a red-light violation on Highland Avenue.

The driver was arrested and charged with a red-light violation, operating with a suspended license, and no license in possession, in addition to the default warrant.
Two of the out-of-state agencies are seeking extradition.
