Flood Advisory – Montague

The Montague Police Department is aware of flooding and standing water on several streets throughout town. We have also received numerous reports of water entering homes and basements.

The Montague DPW and first responders are working hard to respond to the high volume of calls for service as quickly and safely as possible. We appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding as we work through this together.

If you do not need to travel, please stay off the roads to allow emergency crews to respond more efficiently and safely. Never drive through flooded roadways.

A big thank you to FirstLight Northfield Mountain for the grant that allowed the Montague Police Department to purchase new PFD’s and throw rope bags.

We will be working with Turners Falls Fire Department on some basic training for these items to put them in service. While officers are not encouraged to go in the water we often do to help others and this will help make it safer for all involved!

This morning (5/23) an incident took place in the lot behind Sheffield school. Around 2:16 AM Montague Police Department received a call from a resident on Davis St who reported fireworks being lit off from that location and saw a gray or blue extended cab pickup truck leaving the area after doing donuts in the field. The Montague Police are looking for area residents help, and hoping people can check their cameras for a picture of the truck if they live in the area. It appears the truck entered Hillcrest from Griswold street then fled on Davis street towards High street.

Please contact the Montague Police Department at 413-863-8911 if you have more information on this incident.

Thank you for your help. (Posted 5/23/26 @ 3:03 PM)
