Breaking: Man Shot Dead in JP

JP-drive-by.jpg
Jamaica Plain commuters were greeted by a grisly sight this afternoon. A man was shot dead in the section of Southwest Corridor Park just across Boylston Street from the Stony Brook MBTA station. The shooting took place around 4:00pm, and, by 4:30pm, Boston and State police had cordoned off the park.

Witnesses on the scene described the killing as a drive-by shooting.

Police have not released the name of the 20 year old victim and have not reported any arrests. No motive has been advanced for the killing, which is the second alleged drive-by shooting to afflict JP in the past week.

More information at the Herald and WBZTV.
