The following reports were taken from the Boston Police Department’s District 14 (Allston-Brighton) crime logs from Oct. 17-Oct. 24.
Police arrested a 15-year-old Brighton high school student for saying he belongs to a gang Thursday, and found crack-cocaine upon searching him.
The student was summoned to the assistant principal office where he shouted his allegiance to the “Crip” gang.
“Crips go to heaven ’cause the sky is blue and slobs go to hell,” he said. After police officers and the assistant principal failed to calm the student down, they placed him under arrest for disorderly conduct.
While searching the student, the officer found a folded white piece of paper containing crack-cocaine. The officer also found a butterfly knife taped to the student’s left arm.
In addition to drugs and the knife, the officer also recovered gang writings explaining “Crips” stands for “C-collecting, R-respect, I-in, P-piru, S-sets.”
THREE FOR THE MONEY
Three unidentified assailants robbed an Allston resident of her purse and cell phone on the corner of Glenville Avenue and Price Road on Friday night.
After parking her car, the victim saw two men and one woman following her. As she crossed the street to avoid them, she saw one of the men drop a plastic-handle folding knife.
Before she could walk any further, however, the woman, clad in dark pants and a tan hooded jacket that covered her hair, aggressively stepped in front of her and blocked her path.
“Give me the purse or my two boys will come and get you,” she said. As she tried to step around the woman, one of the men snuck up behind her and grabbed her “vintage 1940s brown patent leather purse” and then ran away.
BARRELS OF PAIN
A 16-year-old Dorchester resident was injured Friday night during a large brawl on the corner of Cambridge Street and Sparhawk Street after assailants dropped a metal barrel on his head.
Assailants beat the victim with a wooden stick before throwing a 55-gallon metal barrel on his head.
When officers arrived at the fight, a group of about 20 men ran away toward Brighton High School, blending amongst crowds of other students. Only the victim and a group of seven of his friends remained.
Police searched the area for the assailants, to no avail. An ambulance transported the victim to St. Elizabeth’s Hospital for treatment.
DOUBLE PARKING
A Dedham man assaulted an Allston man at his apartment on Commonwealth Avenue Sunday night.
The assailant came down from the second floor of the apartment complex and knocked violently on his door to demand the victim move his car so he could leave. The victim went back into his apartment to find his keys, only to continue to hear the assailant’s persistent banging on the door.
When the victim returned to his front door, the assailant punched him multiple times, thrusting him backwards onto his mailbox, cutting his ear. The assailant fled from the apartment to his car.
CRASH TEST DUMMY
An unidentified man driving down Sutherland Road rammed another a woman’s car six times at an intersection as she drove to work Wednesday afternoon.
The victim sat in her car three car lengths away from the intersection when a blue Buick sedan exited off of Sutherland Road and rammed into her right front quarter panel. The driver than backed up and began yelling and swearing at the victim.
Trapped in between two cars, the victim dialed 911 as the Buick slammed into her and backed up another five times. When the light turned green, the assailant drove off onto Chestnut Hill Avenue.
The victim was uninjured, although her car sustained substantial damage.
