BOSTON — Police have identified the young men who were killed in a double shooting in Boston over the weekend.
Officers responding to a report of a shooting in the area of 36 Dedham Street in the city’s Hyde Park section after 9:30 p.m. on Saturday found 21-year-old Joshua Marshall, of Stoughton, in a car suffering from an apparent gunshot wound, according to the Boston Police Department.
Marshall was pronounced dead at the scene.
While investigating the area, officers learned that a second victim, 23-year-old Reneil Miller, of Hyde Park, had walked into Milton Hospital with a gunshot wound.
