They think this shooting may be largest in city’s history.

No big deal though...defund the police.

Where did you hear gang kids from Dorchester? Could it have been "Dorchester Ave." in Providence? There is a known gang hangout there, 3 were arrested there on Saturday in relation to this mass shooting.

"PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WJAR) — Three more people have been arrested in connection to a shooting that left nine injured in Providence on May 13.
Providence police said 23-year-old David Carides, 26-year-old Daniel Carides, and a 17-year-old juvenile were arrested on Saturday on Dorchester Avenue.
Police said two rival gangs exchanged gunfire leaving one person in critical condition on Carolina Avenue."

Around the corner where there was recently a shootout. This is right near Franklin Field.


Man murdered on Blue Hill Avenue near Harvard Street

https://universalhub.com/crime/20210...-talbot-avenue


"Boston Police report a man was shot at 917 Blue Hill Ave. around 8:05 p.m. He was taken to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
This was Dorchester's second murder in less than 24 hours. Boston murders in 2021."

The past few days also saw:


  • Woman was stabbed on Devon St. (off Blue Hill) in Dorchester.

  • Three shot on Creston St. (also off Blue Hill) in Dorchester, one man dead.

  • Three people shot in Mattapan (on Blue Hill Ave. in front of Dominos).


  • Man shot on Mt. Everett St. (off Quincy St.) in Dorchester.




The Blue Hill Ave. corridor is lighting up like a Christmas tree.

More like pre-pandemic levels. Shots fired every other day or so in Dot/Rox/Mattapan and a deadly shooting/murder every other week has been par for the course for the last several years.

It's still abysmal, but there were 15 murders through May in 2019 and in 2021 Boston is at 14 so far. Unless things get crazy this weekend, 2021 is just keeping tragic pace.
