Lil Bit Special Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F5bl7S7TI1w http://www.boston.co...?p1=Local_Links Boston police have reviewed a video that is circulating online of a violent altercation in Chinatown, but there is no active investigation into the melee. The 2-minute, 33-second video shows a group of seven men who appear to be harassing drivers and hitting cars as they pass on Tyler Street in Chinatown. One of the men climbs atop one car before getting off and punching one of the vehicle’s windows and demanding the driver exit the sedan. The driver pulls away, then stops at the intersection with Beach Street, emerges armed with a baseball bat, and attacks the group. After striking several of the men with the bat, the driver loses control of the bat, runs back to his car with the group in pursuit, and flees in the vehicle. That draws several of the men out of the camera’s view. Boston police spokesman Eddy Chrispin said there is not much information to go on. “We don’t know when this happened,’’ Chrispin said. “This could have taken place two or five years ago. The person who shot the video didn’t feel the need to report it to us. And the driver of the car didn’t report it to us.’’ Chrispin said police are unable to identify anyone in the video or determine the license plate number of the vehicle. The video is on several websites, including YouTube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
