Police say they are looking to speak with anyone who saw the large dump truck drive through town around 6:30 a.m. Wednesday. The truck was losing large quantities of rip-rap stone, which caused traffic issues and delays, police said.
Rip-rap stone is often used to armor shorelines against water, wave and ice erosion.
