BPD responded to call for a shooting in the area of Melbourne Street around 3:30am on Sunday. According to WHDH, two people are dead and a third is seriously hurt after entering a home during a party.
“The shooting earlier this morning in Dorchester is yet another deadly reminder of the perils to our neighborhoods when too many guns are in the hands of too many people willing to pull the trigger anywhere and anytime. Boston police and my office are doing everything possible to address gun violence but, as I’ve said again and again, the approach must include all of society.” – Kevin Hayden, Suffolk County District Attorney.
Police are still investigating the incident. More to follow.
