A Suffolk County grand jury today issued indictments against four people for allegedly kidnapping and torturing a Brighton man in an Allston apartment in an attempt to get drugs from him this past June.

At the same time, the DA's office says it has dropped all charges against two women initially charged in the case - Cheerley Chevalier of Taunton and Farrah Girault of Roxbury - saying they were unwitting accomplices to the plot.

The Tab reports police have nabbed a man charged with stealing copper downspouts and pipes from St. Anthony's Church on Holton Street in Allston and the McNamara House on Everett Street in Brighton.

HELP!!! Does anyone know a company or individual who can identify and spray to destroy poison ivy? This is the 4th time I've caught it since May, and I am ready to just concrete my whole yard in West Roxbury & paint it green (there goes the neighborhood!!)....I have searched the internet to no avail. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Found innocent on charges he smacked a guy with a bottle in a fight last year at the Greatest Bar. Two former BC players, both now in the NFL, had been put on probation for the incident.

Three photographs were taken of "Eva" in her attire.

And Eagle's is the worst of them all, new Cleveland Circle denizen Martin Lierbaman writes:

... Either the B.C. kids have really low standards for good food, or these places just aren't even trying. How I long for the days when I could get off the T on my way home and eat at T. Anthony's, a real pizza place, and a real good one at that.

Michael Pahre reports from a community meeting at which BC officials defended buying up apartment buildings off campus and such:

... Now BC's director of public affairs, Jack Dunn, increased his rhetoric again by saying Tuesday night that the housing on part of their Chestnut Hill campus is so dense that to find denser housing "you would have to go to a prison." ...

For some reason, residents didn't buy that argument; Pahre provides the numbers to show that BU, which nobody has yet compared to a prison, actually has a higher student density than BC.
