BOSTON (WHDH) - Several Boston Police officers were attacked in Roxbury Thursday afternoon by what officials are calling a group of youths.
The police department told 7NEWS that around 2:30 p.m., officers on Mt. Pleasant Street were reportedly assaulted, with one officer receiving minor injuries. Police did not say how many officers were in the group.
The group included two male suspects, who allegedly drove away from the scene on scooters, according to police.
Soon after, one of the scooters apparently crashed into an unmarked Boston Police cruiser in the area of Burrell Street.
The suspect was soon arrested and found to be carrying a firearm, with drugs also found at the scene, per a preliminary reported from the department.
