Boston Blotter: Youth Gone Wild

Why do we get the depressed feeling that this won't be the last time you see this headline?

Anyway, the onset of puberty usually leads to outbursts, but this is ridiculous. The BPD arrested a 10-year-old girl for attacking a 22-year-old woman at Target in Dorchester.

The Herald reports that several girls beat on and kicked the woman after she bumped into them and didn't apologize. According to a police spokesman, while the woman was being hit, "her hair was being ripped out, and her pants were taken off." All of the budding thugs are in serious trouble, but the 10-year-old was arrested because she was allegedly "particularly brutal."

A complicated scene unfolded at the Jam Rock restaurant on Blue Hill Avenue. A man was stabbed early this morning and taken to the hospital. His wife later turned herself in.

A man was found shot inside a Chevy Astro van near the Forest Hills T station. As of now, the BPD has homicide detectives on the case, and the man was taken to the hospital with life-threatening injuries.

And remember the three young Roxbury kids who were rescued from a house fire over the weekend? The Department of Social Services sure does. Since the kids were left alone and were playing with matches, the DSS, which was already working with the family, has removed the kids from their mother's care. WCVB reports that she wants them back, but she may need to ditch her boyfriend first, who allegedly left the kids alone because they gave him a headache.
