Hudson police are currently investigating the felonious discharge of a firearm on April 28, about 9:15 pm. A red SUV was traveling north on River Road when it was struck by what appears to be a large caliber handgun round. Police say the round was fired from a moving vehicle traveling in the opposite direction. The victims in this case described the suspect vehicle as an older model, dark-colored pickup truck with a lighter-colored stripe on the sides. The vehicle did not have any distinguishing marks or bumper stickers and contained an unknown number of occupants.
Anyone with information relating to this case is asked to contact the Hudson Police Department Criminal Investigation Division at (603) 886-6011 Callers may remain anonymous.

Missing Woburn Woman Found
WOBURN — Tammy Nickerson, a 45-year-old Woburn woman who left her job at Saints Medical Center in Lowell Thursday night and never made it home, has been found. That ends one mystery but begins another one as police in Woburn aren’t saying when, where or how.
A call was placed to the desk at the Woburn P.D. on Saturday at about 7 p.m. to see if there was any new news to add to the story that ran in Saturday morning’s paper about the disappearance. An officer answering the phone said, “She’s been located. That’s all I can give you right now.” Asked if we should try back later in the evening, the officer said something like, “You can try.”
On Friday, we were not able to find out if Tammy Nickerson was married, had children, lived with her parents, barely any information was given out except that she was 5′-7″, weighed 180 pounds and had long blond hair. They provided WBZ-TV with a photo of the missing woman. Police also said that during the day a State Police helicopter scoured the route she normally took back and forth to work, looking for the brown Ford Taurus she was driving. Police gave us the plate number and asked for our help in getting the word out.
It was a different story on Saturday night, however. When The Sun called back around 9:30 p.m. the same officer who answered previously said, “That’s all we can tell you right now. Try again tomorrow or Monday.”
So, check back here tomorrow or Monday. Hopefully, we’ll have more information.
Salem chain saw arrest
Seems that father and son John and Jake Wells of Salem, N.H., had a bit of an argument last night. When police arrived, John Wells held them off with a running chain saw. And before it was all over, Jake Wells was in cuffs, too.
Vacation
I’ll be on vaction until May, so I wish everyone a good week or so. Keep checking back. I’m sure my co-workers will still come up with some good stuff for the blog while they fill in for me.
I just hope it’s not too much better than my entries.
