REPORT: Many Milford Police Drug Calls are at Coffee Shops

A new report from the Milford Police Department shows that a large portion of calls are coming from coffee shops and are drug related.

Reviewed by the selectmen Monday night according to the Milford Daily News, Dunkin’ Donuts’ four Milford locations had 50 calls, with 34 coming from 31 East Main Street. Of those 34, 14 were drug related.
