Boston Blotter: How's This for a Mugshot?
--Framingham Police had to deal with a perp so drunk and unruly on Sunday that they had to hold his head still when they snapped him for his mugshot.
According to the MetroWest Daily News, Sandro Romero's wild night started when police happened upon Romero's friends, who were trying to take him home. Even though they got him home, the officer involved got called back due to reports of a "screaming man."
While being booked, Romero mooned officers and then made lewd comments to another officer. This could have been Oddblotter material, but we feel too bad for the FPD to classify it as such. The FPD deserves propers for dealing with all that and somehow managing to keep Romero upright long enough to get in a mugshot.
--Speaking of people who are drunk and dangerous, the Herald reports that a Sunday School teacher from Quincy went to court for hitting a State Trooper's car with her own in the Tip O'Neill tunnel early on Sunday. The trooper was parked to help with another accident when 27-year-old Candace Player rammed him, and he went to the hospital with injuries.
--Two juvies were arrested for starting a fire at a lumberyard in Ayer on November 27. Their actions turned into a five-alarm fire.
--The BU Daily Free Press just swiped the Blotter Entry Title Award from the BPD: "Golden Girls Gone Wild." Two elderly women who are upstairs/downstairs neighbors got into a tiff. One banged on the floor, while the other banged on the ceiling, and one of them called the cops. Also on the Daily Free Press blotter, friends don't let friends stand on chairs while drunk. At least get a spotter.
