crime_scene_tape.jpg

--It's always fun when a story is headlined, "Is it raining weed?" Five Roslindale residents--with ages ranging from 14 to 22--were arrested after allegedly forcing their way into an apartment building and heading upstairs. After police showed up en masse, one suspect "dropped a bag containing a green leafy substance believed to be marijuana on the head of a detective” from a balcony. They were arrested on breaking and entering and marijuana charges. [Roslindale Transcript]

--Staying in Roslindale, two people were treated for non-life-threatening gunshot wounds after an incident on Beechland Street yesterday. [WBZ]

--A street cleaner is okay after being shot by a pellet gun while navigating his vehicle in Wellesley yesterday. Authorities traced the trajectory of the pellet to a neighborhood house but have yet to make an arrest in the case. [WCVB]

--A young person in Dorchester's Uphams Corner was shot in the chest several times and is in critical condition. No arrests have been made in the case. [WBZ]

All charges alleged until proven under law.

Has anyone considered the possibility that Rick Moranis and Eugene Levy ("Club Paradise")dropped that weed out of a small plane?
