Agree that information is definitely missing. But tacknosaddle isn’t entirely wrong. Over the years families that were associated with, or loosely connected to particular neighborhood gangs, moved out of Boston in favor of places like Everett, Malden, revere, Norwood, Randolph, stoughton, etc.

But they’d still frequently return to Boston neighborhoods for some visits with friends or family. So this person might not be directly involved in anything nefarious, but being in the wrong neighborhood when the ops come through could have these results.

I do wish they would all stop shooting each other over silly neighborhood allegiance over a feud that likely began before they were even out of diapers.
