WAKEFIELD — Within a 10-minute timeframe on Friday, police responded to two different calls in two different areas of town. In both incidents, summonses were issued.

The first was reported at 7:40 p.m. when the manager of a group home on Pleasant Street notified police that a client was out of control. The manager said that the client was restrained on the front porch. Malicious damage was noted on a motor vehicle and the client was charged with disorderly conduct. The client, a 30-year-old man, was taken to Melrose-Wakefield Hospital for treatment. Patrol Officer Ryan Doran and Sgt. Jonathan Burnham responded.

The second incident took place at 7:51 p.m. at the intersection of North Avenue and Beacon Street where a 24-year-old man from Wakefield was discovered driving a gray 2006 Hummer without a license plate attached. Patrol Officer Matthew Powers said that the driver was headed south on North Avenue just before he was stopped. The driver was charged with operating a motor vehicle without a license, not meeting Registry of Motor Vehicle standards, not having in his possession a valid registration and having his registration suspended/revoked.

Both people will be summonsed to court sometime this week.

The Daily Item does not publish the names of people police say they plan to summons to court.
