Fake or real gun?
Perhaps a fake one since no indication it opened up his scalp.
Not the first time...
Chased a mugger in this same spot 2 years ago. Broad daylight with families everywhere. Too bad I didn't notice his lurking friend when I first gave chase. Eight stitches later they caught the idiots at the Mass Ave T stop. As for justice...mugger released on $250 cash bail and assaulter with deadly weapon (second offense) released on $500 cash bail.
Long story short - keep your head on a swivel and don't go near Sparrow Park after dark.
Says it all right there:
'As for justice...mugger released on $250 cash bail and assaulter with deadly weapon (second offense) released on $500 cash bail.'
____ The courts don't generally treat violent street crimes like getting jumped, robbed, beaten up, very seriously. Now...if you rob a bank....that's a whole other story, they'll throw the book at you. Matter of priorities I suppose.
Another good one by BPD
Glad they caught the suspects quickly.
I really want to use another word. Thugs. Punks. Scumbags. Degenerates. Trash. StiƧking with "suspects" for now. Open to suggestions as we learn more.
