Region Roundup: Attleboro Chooses Gomez, Hernandez Saga Continues and Officers Allegedly Assaulted in Stoughton

As Ed Markey celebrated his win in Tuesday's Special Senate Election, Attleboro poll workers finalized results that showed Gabriel Gomez with a clear victory in the city.

Former New England Patriots’ player Aaron Hernandez will face six charges including murder related to the homicide of Dorchester resident Odin Lloyd.

She was the "most vulgar" person he's ever dealt with in more than two decades of policing, Stoughton officer Allen Curtis noted in his police report, according to Deputy Chief Robert Devine.

A Taunton woman, Clarissa Garriga, 23, was recently arrested for drunk driving, along with a number of other offenses, following a motor vehicle stop at the intersection of Washington St. and Walnut St. in Stoughton.

Once pulled over by police, Garriga became "completely belligerent," Devine said, including assaulting officers, spitting on them, using racial slurs and urinating on the floor of the police station.

Eleven-year-old Livia Davis of Canton recently had the unique opportunity to observe a training session with a 400-pound gorilla.

Livia had won a first-of-its-kind contest sponsored by ARCH Orthodontics where she goes for her braces. The prize: An up-close and personal training session with western lowland gorilla Okpara (‘Okie’), a male gorilla that resides at the zoo’s Tropical Forest gorilla exhibit.
