Last month, a man was charged with assault and battery for allegedly attacking two men, cutting one’s face, while playing dominoes in Dorchester at Harambee Park.
According to NBC10 Boston, Ron Taylor, 66, was arrested in Cambridge after the alleged attack on Friday, Aug. 25th.
Evidently, an argument broke out during the game of dominoes and Taylor got a machete from the trunk of a Lexus and cut one man’s face, then chased the other around a car. Taylor then left the scene. BPD was called to the scene and sent an alert to be on the lookout for Taylor and his car. Cambridge police took him into custody and allegedly found the machete in a sink in his apartment.
Taylor appeared in Dorchester District Court on Aug. 28th. and faced two counts of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon and one count of mayhem. He was ordered held on $2,500 bail and, upon release, ordered to house arrest.
