Teens arrested with loaded guns in separate Dorchester incidents, police say

Boston Police report arresting a 16-year-old they say tossed a loaded gun from his scooter as officers chased him outside 10 Dunbar Ave. in Dorchester Friday night.

In a separate incident, police report arresting a 16-year-old with a gun loaded with 11 rounds at Glenway and Harlem streets Thursday morning- along with two pals, one a 16-year-old with a warrant for possession of a loaded gun and firing a gun, the other another 16-year-old with a warrant charging him with assault and battery with a dangerous weapon.

Police say that around 9:20 p.m. on Friday, police who already had their eye on one kid spotted "two scooters traveling the wrong way on Helen Street and also observed them fail to stop for a stop sign at Kerwin Street and Talbot Avenue."

As officers attempted to conduct a traffic stop, the 16-year-old male jumped off the scooter and fled on foot. Officers located him in a nearby driveway. As a result of the traffic stop, officers recovered a loaded 9mm firearm with one round in chamber and three rounds in the magazine.

The teen was charged with being delinquent for unlawful possession of a firearm, unlawful possession of ammunition and trespassing.

Around 10:55 a.m. on Thursday, officers arrested three teens "as a result of an ongoing firearm investigation."

After recovering "a loaded Mossberg MC2 with one round in the chamber and eleven rounds in the magazine," police charged one of the three, a Dorchester 16-year-old, with being delinquent for unlawful possession of a firearm, unlawful possession of ammunition and possession of a high-capacity feeding device.

The second, also from Dorchester, was arrested on a warrant out of Suffolk juvenile court charging him with being delinquent for discharging a firearm within 500 feet of a building, unlawful possession of a loaded firearm and unlawful possession of ammunition, police say. The third, from Hyde Park, police say, was arrested on a warrant out of Norfolk juvenile court charging him with being delinquent for assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, resisting arrest and disorderly conduct.
