BOSTON — Three people were arrested and are facing assault and armed robbery charges following a midweek attack in Dorchester, the Boston police announced.
The incident occurred on Wednesday, April 8, when officers were dispatched to 7 Topliff Street for a radio call of an armed robbery.
According to police, the victims were dropping items off at that address when multiple people approached them and assaulted them.
“The victims were sprayed with bear spray and struck with a rock. One of the suspect’s struck a victim in the head with a firearm,” Boston police wrote. “Boston EMS was requested to respond to the scene, and both victims refused further medical treatment.”
