Boston Blotter: NU Student Has to Go. Real Bad.

--We're not saying Northeastern University students like to urinate on stuff. But first it was the onions, and then it was the time-honored closet of the roommate. The NU crime log says,

An intoxicated 20-year-old male student walked into his roommate's bedroom in West Village A, urinated in his closet and returned to his own bed. He will be reported to the Office of Student Conduct and Conflict Resolution.

We just find it interesting that the roommate saw fit to call the police. Peeing on your roommate's stuff is merely a tradition and a method of marking your territory, right?

--Eenie-Meenie-Meinie-Mo. The BPD couldn't make up its mind when they thought they had a suspect for two of last weekend's Mattapan shootings. They picked up 19-year-old Tyshawn Woodley, but it turns out that he was busy talking to a gang-unit officer when the shootings happened.

--Speaking of boo-boos, Braintree firefighters who were on a training exercise cut holes in the wrong house. The house had been burned, and no one was living there, but the owners are understandably irritated. The house may look like a burned wreck, but, by golly, it's their burned wreck.

But the owners, the Luu family, isn't totally pissed off. Jeffrey Luu told the press, "Accidents happen." Now that's a nice guy! Shame that the roommate of the NU student with the peeing problem didn't have the same attitude.

--Late Monday night, someone in South Boston got shot in the wrist. The person who got hit said it was a drive by and didn't know the attacker. Police might look harder for the shooter because the victim ran past State Representative Brian Wallace's house, and Wallace knew the victim from the South Boston Pop Warner football league.

--A violent hold-up happened at a Nextel Store on Washington. A man with a shotgun threw a customer to the floor, busting her nose, and then he made the others inside go to the back. Luckily for them, he just took cash out of the register and left. Another suspect was also involved.

--A woman held up a bank in Braintree. She didn't show a weapon, but she said she would "hurt people" if the bank threw in a dye pack. They threw in a dye pack anyway.
