Bad sample
On Monday, Oct. 23, at around 10:55 a.m., a Boston University Medical Center special State Police officer assigned to the Mountain Bike Unit was patrolling the exterior of the Dowling Building at 771 Albany St. when he observed a female and two male engage in a “hand-to-hand” drug transaction behind the bus stop at Massachusetts Avenue and Albany Street.
The officer observed one male suspect holding an uncapped prescription bottle and showing its contents to the other two parties while the other man was clutching an undetermined amount of money in his hand. After noticing the officer standing nearby, the first male suspect recapped the prescription bottle, concealed it inside his backpack and attempted to flee the area. The officer then stopped the three suspects, all of whom denied any wrongdoing.
The male suspect with the backpack consented to a search of the bag and his person, yielding two pill bottles containing Ibuprofen and Trazodone, both of which were prescribed to him. He was then released and escorted off the property.
The female suspect consented to a search of her handbag, which yielded 31 Gabapentin pills. She was unable to provide a valid prescription for the medication, however.
The other man, who identified himself as the husband of the female suspect, consented to a search of his person, which yielded a large, paper fold containing a brown, powdery substance believed to be heroin.
The man denied knowing what the packet contained and said he just found it on the street. He was subsequently informed of his Miranda rights and charged with possession of a Class A substance.
“I made a mistake, man. Someone gave me that heroin as a sample to try,” he said before being transported to District 4 headquarters, where he was booked without incident.
Meanwhile, the female suspect will be summonsed to Boston Municipal Court on two counts of possession of a Class E substance.
Bombs away
On Monday, Oct. 23, at approximately 3:04 p.m., police responded to a Berklee College of Music building at 155 Massachusetts Ave. for a reported bomb threat.
On arrival, officers met with a school security guard, who said the school had received an email stating that three devices would be detonated at 899, 921 and 1108 Boylston St. at 5 p.m.
Police conducted a sweep of the exteriors and interiors of the three buildings at those addresses, but found no explosives or explosive components.
Officers told school officials to contact the Boston Police Bomb Squad if they noticed anything out of the ordinary.
An unhelping hand
On Wednesday, Oct. 25, at about 11 p.m., police responded to 755 Boylston St. for a reported assault in progress.
Upon arrival, the officer met the victim, who said an unknown male suspect had robbed him. The victim said he was lost and offering money to passersby to give him directions to Brookline, when the suspect approached ostensibly to help the victim at first. The suspect then punched the victim in the chest and grabbed $3 from the victim’s hand, which he had been offering for directions. The suspect subsequently fled down Boylston Street towards Fairfield Street.
The victim refused medical attention at this time and said he would take a cab to Brookline.
Police searched the area for the suspect to no avail.
