Boston Blotter: Somebody's Getting Grounded

--Instead of saving up their allowance, pulling out some teeth for the Tooth Fairy, or asking Santa, three kids allegedly plotted a Nintendo Wii heist. The kids broke into a house on Chandler Street, but the owner came home and saw a 12-year-old girl in medias res, with the Wii in her hands.

The owner grabbed the girl while her so-called friends, a 12-year-old boy and a 15-year-old boy, tried to escape. The BPD was too fast for them.

--At least children have the excuse that they don't know any better. The same cannot be said for a man who masturbated in front of a woman and her children at the Braintree T stop. William J. Lutz, who is a registered sex offender, got caught with his pants down at 11 am. When a T police officer found out what was going on, he ran after Lutz and even got hit by a truck. Eventually, he captured the alleged perv - who was hiding out in a port-a-potty.

--It doesn’t matter if it's Labor Day or a birthday or an anniversary - if you try to run across the field at Fenway Park during a game, you will get arrested. On Friday night, Northfield resident Jameson Arsenault (accent on the "Arse") tried to make it to third base. He didn't.

--A 41-year-old man was stabbed in the stomach Saturday night on Beach Street. He is now at Boston Medical Center in serious condition. Early Saturday morning, police responding to a call about a fight found a 36-year-old man suffering from stab wounds on Regent Street.

--A four-alarm fire broke out in Lawrence on Sunday morning. The fire spread through four residential buildings and caused $1 million in damage. Fire investigators are suspicious about the cause because one of the buildings involved was unoccupied.
