Boston Blotter: The Perp Was an Emeril Fan

crime_scene_tape.jpg--A brawler went crackers at 10 City Square in Charlestown--yes, that's Olives, owned by celebrity chef Todd English. This perp gave employees a hard time by "starting fights with several patrons and urinating in the bar area." People pee in public all the time, but at Olives? Did he not like the squab and chanterelle mushroom risotto with corn foam? Alleged disrespectful foodie urination wasn't enough for this guy, and he perp grew increasingly bold. He tried to bite employees (maybe they tasted better?) when they attempted to toss him, and he insulted police officers.

Brawlers in general were busy last night. In South Boston, an unlucky fellow discovered that two men were fighting on top of his car. Apparently he wasn't involved with the fight and had to call the police to remove the men, who "caused substantial damage to the caller's car." [BPD News]

--A suspect who had a warrant for his arrest tried to hide out from the police in Jamaica Plain yesterday--in a pile of dirty laundry. This episode was not as creative as that of the woman who hid out in a clothes dryer. [BPD News]

--The Community Ombudsman Oversight Panel and Complaint Mediation Program, or the panel set up to monitor police behavior, is so secretive that the Herald barely knows what to write about it. [Boston Herald]

corn foam always makes me a little angsty.
