Boston Police are investigating a body found outside 1960 Comm. Ave., a day after they found a body at 1820 Comm. Ave., just on the other side of Chestnut Hill Avenue.
David Harris says police officers investigating today's body gave him two choices when they noticed him with a camera today: He could delete the photo he had taken of the sheet-covered body as they watched or he could produce identification proving he really is a journalist.
Fortunately for Harris, editor of the Cambridge Chronicle, he could. But first, he says, he tried to convince the cops they had no right to either make him delete the photo or detain him because he was standing in a public space. Only when that didn't work, he says, did he show he was accredited.
