Boston Blotter: Dorchester High Locked Down, Longfellow Bridge Bandits Nabbed

crime_scene_tape.jpg-- A 35-year-old man was shot this morning near Dorchester High, putting the school into lock down. The man's wounds were non-life-threatening, and no arrests have been made. [Herald]

-- The bandits who stole the century old metal trim from the Longfellow Bridge have been caught, police say. The metal, 2,300 feet of it, had been removed from the bridge during renovations and stored in a Stoneham warehouse, where it was stolen. Authorities discovered the theft earlier this month and quickly nabbed two suspects, both state employees. [Herald]

-- Conan O'Brien's stalker has disappeared from a mental health treatment facility. [Herald]

-- Biking in Massachusetts may have gotten too easy. One bicyclist, evidently fond of long-distance excursions, is wanted in connection with three bank heists: in Weymouth, Shrewsbury, and Watertown. Closer to Boston, a pair of 16-year-old cyclists are wanted in connection with a series of home burglaries in North Cambridge. [Herald; Cambridge Chronicle]

All charges alleged until proven under law.
