Mashpee Wampanoag Police Department is asking anyone with information on the destruction of this Memorial Bench at their Sacred Meeting House Tribal Cemetery, to please contact the Tribal Police Department’s non-emergency number at 774-361-6045.

Last month security notified Tribal Police of possible destruction of property. Tribal Police responded and immediately notified the father of the deceased. Tribal Police met with the deceased father at the Cemetery to initiate the report and gather information.

Since then a fund has been created to fix the memorial and provide additional support to the children and family of the deceased.
