The Scarborough man died Wednesday while removing rope that was tangled on the prop of the 65-foot fishing boat Jamie & Ashley.

It was the driver’s first day on the job after recently receiving his Class A license to drive a truck.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office announces the creation of three working groups to tackle various aspects of the problem.

Dennis McGrath, 56, was removing tangled line from a fishing vessel docked at the pier Wednesday.

As samples are gathered in the field and lab work is done, one boy is in fair condition but another child has died. Both had visited a fair’s petting zoo.

No explanation is offered for the chief’s planned departure on Oct. 20.
