When police arrived, a victim was suffering from a small puncture wound on the side of his lower back. He spoke with officers and pointed to a vehicle that was attempting to exit a municipal garage. Officers ordered the passengers to stop and exit the vehicle. A passenger, Sean Hunter, 20, 80 Dabney Street, Roxbury, was identified as the suspect responsible for stabbing the victim. He was arrested for Assault and Battery with a Dangerous Weapon. The victim was treated for non-life threatening injuries at a local hospital. > > During the investigation, the night manager of the garage alerted officers of a second vehicle that was trying to exit the garage. Officers attempted to stop the vehicle and speak with the passengers, but the driver refused to follow orders. After several requests, the driver drove towards and nearly hit the officer.

FW: Search for lodging for a graduate student
by Ruth Ryals 09 Aug '14

From: Cécile GARCIN <cecile.garcin(a)outlook.com> Date: Saturday, August 9, 2014 5:04 AM To: Ruth Ryals <rryals(a)comcast.net> Subject: Search for lodging for a graduate student Hello Ruth, Could you post this below please? Thank you. Very good friends of mine hosted Kathie,an American student, for 6 months last year in France. Now Kathie back in the US is looking for some lodging in the Boston/Cambridge area. If someone has a lead, please contact her directly. See below her profile and details about her search. Thank you Cecile Garcin - 160 upland *********************************************** ³I am 23 years old, just graduated from UC San Diego, and will be beginning a masters program in Global Studies at Brandeis University this fall. I try to balance my school work with a healthy social life - I am very friendly and I love to meet people, especially since I will be new to area and know very few people! I also understand the importance of quiet work space and will respect that at home and I will most likely be kept busy with my school work! I am clean and considerate and recognize the importance of privacy and personal space. I will arrive in the Boston area August 22nd. I am hoping to find some sort of interim housing from August 22nd to September 1st so that I may be able to arrive in the city and take this time to find housing for myself! I hope to find a place in Cambridge near Porter¹s Square, Harvard¹s Square, etc. some place near public transportation since I won¹t have my car. A place in Cambridge may be helpful to me since it is the area where I also plan to look for permanent housing, but it is not essential! I am also, of course, looking for a long-term housing. I hope to be in the Cambridge area, near the T but I am also open to any place in the Boston area that has easy access to public transportation I do not mind a commute! I hope to find a room in a house with other people (graduate students or young professionals would be ideal but I am also open to other options!) and my price range is $700-1000 a month. Thank you for your help! It is very appreciated!! Best, Katie Hossack 530-391-6069 katiehossack(a)yahoo.com

Warning: Another package stolen

I found a broken open package on Herbert Street, addressed to someone on Buena Vista. Fortunately, I also found the discarded contents nearby. I guess the thief decided against it. I delivered it safely (I hope), but be forewarned it's happening again. Bill Barnert 7 Herbert Street
