VERGENNES — On Jan. 30 Vergennes police responded to a reported fight between two construction crews at the downtown Vergennes Green construction site.

Police said they learned workers were arguing about who owned an extension cord, but all involved in the dispute were gone when authorities arrived. Police added that once they talked to those involved, accounts of the incident conflicted, and no one was hurt.

Police notified the project superintendent so that he and the construction companies could sort things out.
