Live Boston reports a man shot at least twice was found in a car with multiple fresh bullet holes at Bowdoin and Hamilton streets in Dorchester around 5:40 p.m., about a half mile and ten minutes away from where the BPD ShotSpotter reported gunfire on Columbia Road, in front of the Lilla Frederick School.

Live Boston is a well-known

Live Boston is a well-known biased pro-law site. In this shooting children were not even in school so why mention it.

BPS schools are in session

BPS schools are in session four days a week with students currently in person on Fridays. This particular school is in session until 4:30. There is a very good chance that there were students still outside of school waiting for parents, late buses or playing. It’s clearly daylight on a busy street in front of a school, I think this is very relevant information and should be alarming to all in the community. This has nothing to do with biased news reporting.

Possibly ...

because that's where it happened? Maybe you'd rather they just said "on Columbia Rd", and left it at that, because you think that's a short street?

Bias

I take Live Boston with a big grain of salt but I also apply the same skepticism to sites that are specifically anti-police.

Both groups exaggerate and omit when it serves their purposes. But both can offer useful details at times.

How many bullet holes

How many bullet holes constitute a ridldling?
