Boston Police: E-5 West Roxbury

FIGHTING ON CENTRE ST.

Last weekend police officers from Area E5 responded to a radio call for a fight taking place on Centre St. in West Roxbury.  Officers arrived to find 3 individuals seriously injured.  After investigating the incident it was determined that the dispute was between teenagers from West Roxbury and other surrounding neighborhoods.  These individuals are students at Catholic Memorial, Boston Latin, and Boston Latin Academy.

Officers from E 5 are expecting a second incident to occur this weekend.  The Area E5 police officers will have zero tolerance for this type of behavior.  In order to be preventative in our approach to this matter we ask residents to be vigilant and to communicate any information they may have to the police.  Be mindful of where your teens will be spending their free time during the weekend, and enlighten them on the consequences of not only being involved in a fight, but merely just being present during it. 

We remind residents to always call 9-1-1 if ever any suspicious activity is occurring in your neighborhoods.  For further information please contact the Community Service Office at 617.343.4564.
