Two teens used loaded guns to rob and then kidnap a third in Dorchester, police say

Boston Police report arresting two 15-year-olds they say used loaded guns in "an argument over a scooter" that included pointing the weapons at a third teen and then having him driven a mile away to be dumped out, without the scooter, yesterday afternoon.

Police say officers responded to 54 Armandine St. in Dorchester on a report of a kidnapping involving three males kidnapping a fourth, but found neither the kidnappers nor the alleged victim. About a half hour later, police say, officers responded to 180 Westview St. in the Franklin Field development for a report of a person with a gun:

Boston Police Operations provided officers with a description of two juvenile males in possession of firearms. Officers were advised that the victim was kidnapped at gunpoint and driven to the area of Franklin Field in an unknown vehicle.

Officers began to search the area and observed one of the juvenile suspects. As officers approached the suspect, he attempted to flee the area. Officers were able to quickly stop the suspect a placed him into handcuffs. Officers continued to search the area for the second suspect and located him in the area of 70 Ames Street.

Officers canvassed the area of the suspects, and located two discarded firearms. The first firearm was later determined to be Smith & Wesson 9mm affixed with a laser flashlight, with one round in the chamber and fourteen rounds in the magazine. The second firearm was determined to be a Polymer 80 with sixteen rounds in the magazine.

The third alleged kidnapper was not found.

The two teens, too young to have their names released, were charged as being delinquent for kidnapping, assault by means of a dangerous weapon, masked armed robbery, illegal possession of a firearm, illegal possession of a large-capacity feeding device and illegal possession of ammunition, police say.
