The night of Oct. 31 is quickly approaching. Children will be out trick-or-treating, and everyone should take precautions to keep Halloween a safe event. From wearing appropriate attire to checking your children’s candy to driving safely, everyone plays a role on this holiday.
Young children should always be accompanied by responsible adults and parents and guardians should set clear rules and expectations for older children who are going out alone. If you’re out driving on Halloween night, please take extra precautions and give yourself extra time to get wherever you’re going.

Chief Donna McNamara wishes to share a public service announcement from the Massachusetts Chiefs of Police Association for Domestic Violence Awareness Month this October.
UMass Boston Police Chief Stacey Lloyd is sharing her personal story about growing up in a household where her mother was a victim of domestic violence.
Chief Lloyd, now a mother of three, has dedicated her life to educating and helping others.
“It affects you financially, mentally, socially along with the isolation of separating you from your friends and family, those are all types of domestic violence. I made it my life’s work as a police officer to stop the cycle of violence,” Chief Lloyd said.
The Massachusetts Chiefs of Police Association thanks Chief Lloyd for assisting the organization in creating this heartfelt public service announcement to bring attention to this necessary cause.
We realize that leaving abusive relationships goes beyond walking away and law enforcement understands the risk factors associated with the repeated cycles of fear, intimidation, violence and recurring trauma.
We encourage those who remain silent in domestic violence situations to seek the many modern-day resources we have available at the Stoughton Police Department, or the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE.
