Menotomy Road Woman Reports Residence Broken Into, Cat Stolen

She said the suspect knew that one of her kitchen windows is always left cracked open for her cats.

Woman Taken to Hospital After Falling Off Bicycle

A woman fell off of her bicycle Friday afternoon on the Minuteman bike path, near Brattle Place.

Police officers, firefighters and EMTs responded to the scene at about 2:08 p.m. for a report of an unconscious woman.

Once there, police found the woman, who was with her husband, on her side. She had a few scrapes on her hands and elbows and had been bleeding from her right ear, according to police. She was placed in a neck collar and boarded and taken to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston by ambulance, police said.

Her husband said that he was riding in front of her but believes that she may have fallen after striking a raised portion of the concrete path in that area.

The woman was wearing a helmet when she fell, according to police.
