--On Saturday morning, a construction worker in Watertown went on a crazy trip to Brookline. The worker, 24-year-old Kevin Lasquade, happened to be drunk at the time.
According to WHDH, Lasquade got noticed when "he allegedly hit a parked car on Beacon Street in Brookline." He also took the backhoe into a Stop & Shop lot and almost did some damage there.
As if driving drunk weren't bad enough, WHDH pointed out that Lasquade didn’t have a license to operate a backhoe, and he claimed he wasn't driving--even though he was the only person in the vehicle at the time. Lasquade's imaginary friend was unavailable for comment.
--Also, Neal Simpson at the Brookline TAB blog notes that a parking attendant busted a couple in flagrante delicto on Dummer Street last week … at noon. Well done!
--This whole post leads us to ask--what the hell is going on in Brookline when it comes to Oddblotter material?
