The resident said she didn’t know the driver but she was able to identify two passengers. The truck driver left when the resident said she was calling the police. Police were able to track down one of the passengers, who said the driver did the plowing on Castle Street because he was fighting with someone who lived there. He told police they could find the truck on Water Street. Police found the truck and spoke with the driver, who was from North Kingstown. He would not admit to plowing on the street earlier. Police cautioned him to stay away from Castle Street for the rest of the night.

1:05 a.m. – Police arrested a West Warwick man, 31, for driving with a suspended license after he was pulled over for speeding on Division Street. Routine checks turned up the license violation.

She said she has permission to park there. The message read, “Park back so others can fit.” The woman said she thought it was done by the owner of another car that was parked nearby and said she wanted to press charges. Police said that would be difficult since they were easily able to remove the writing using Purell. They said they would try to contact the owner of the other car but suggested she park elsewhere in the meantime.
