Reminds you how none of this stuff is by accident and the irony is no one will speak up in the community. I know those damn racist cops are no good. Lol. Wake up folks.

What does that signify?

When someone is from Boston and lives in one of the neighborhoods plagued by gang violence, wearing an out of town team's hat often (but not always) signifies gang affiliation. Boston street gangs often show their "colors" by wearing a particular out of town team's sports hats and other clothing.

as far as i know , most boston gangs arent going by colors , its more location. for example : Atlanta braves hat was once used for Archdale Projects , Red sox hat was Beech st projects , Colorado Rockies hat was anywhere on/off Colombia Road etc. . the Reds " C " hat coulda been Charlestown ... but either way ppl stopped that like 5 years ago. People in boston do realize that " Gangs " are more By neighborhood / Project development instead of blood , crip , ms-13 right? like yea theres actual GANG members out there but 9/10 you get shot because you didnt grow up in the same hood as the dude who shot you. in THIS case however , maybe it wasnt gang related .. maybe money/drugs .

To his defendants : im black and 23. i coulda went to school with him and/or his killer for all i know. i Grew up in projects .. lived there 10+ years and i made it out without ever feeling handcuffs or bullets. you dont " fall into the street life " its a choice. whether you make the choice yourself , or you let society and the guys in the next hood make it for you.

Has a past:

ANTHONY TOOMBS (D.O.B. 4/12/92) was charged in Dorchester District Court with unlawful possession of a firearm, unlawful possession of ammunition, unlawfully carrying a loaded firearm, unlawfully discharging a firearm within 500’ of a dwelling, assault with a dangerous weapon, assault and battery on a public employee, resisting arrest, and trespassing.
Officers pursued Toombs into Puddingstone Park, where Toombs allegedly pulled a handgun from his sweatshirt pocket. Officers ordered him to drop the gun; Toombs allegedly refused and continued to run. When he got to a fenced-in area of the park abutting Pasadena Road, Toombs allegedly pointed the gun at two pursuing officers and fired. No one was struck.

One of the officers fired his own service weapon. Again, no one was struck.

Toombs allegedly tossed the gun over the fence and went to the ground. He complied with orders to show officers his hands, but allegedly struggled with another officer who attempted to place him in custody. Toombs is charged with assaulting that officer with his fist.

Additional officers recovered the gun Toombs allegedly used, a Hi-Point Model C-9 9mm semiautomatic loaded with 8 rounds of ammunition.

You have to be a very sad retard to pull something like this. This man just got killed, your going to throw dirt on his name like that pussy! Donald Trump has really gave a lot of y'all racist bitches a voice and a set of nuts lol. Your pathetic most likely a big fat couch potato that sits on the computer all fucking day looking for people to talk shit about, because you're not happy with yourself. Lol you fat fucking slob. I can guarantee you that if everyone knew who you were, you wouldn't of ever posted that shit because you are a pussy little bitch. But trust me karma will catch up to your fat pig ass. Oh and just to let you know bitch it's innocent until proven guilty. That's like saying because you're a bitch you suck dick clown

R.I.P ps i don't even know why uhub even let's comments like his make it up!!!! This is disrespectful to his family.

It looks like he copy and pasted an article, then added that he didn't think this person would be missed.

He didn't mention race once. It's racist just because this Suspect (in his quoted article, later a victim) is a black person?

If race isn't mentioned, an assumption isn't made based on race or outright slurs aren't said, you can't just scream "RACISM!!!" because you might not like what is being said.

The above commenter provided info - the murdered person was previously arrested with a firearm. the end. white, black, Spanish, Asian, Indian, from the Moon, doesn't matter - not racist.

Nice digs though calling this person a "bitch, clown dick sucker". Sounds like you have studied at the millennial school or BLM style protesting/debating - If you don't like what someone says, it's gives you the right to call them the most vile things you can think of at the top of your lungs an inch from their face.

Stay classy.

I THOUGHT IT WAS INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY! I guess not when it comes to a black man. I'm even surprised that Adam didn't even say anything to defend this deceased man. I guess trump gave all of you guys nuts now. Every time these white child molesters get caught y'all quiet no comments at all but as soon as y'all see a black man y'all go and google his name to see what you find on him. How pathetic you little bitch. But that's like saying because of you being a bitch you suck dick then right?!?!?

R.I.P My condolences to his family and friends

whatever somebody might have done, or not done, in their life, does not mean that they were not loved. and perhaps this isn't the time to point a finger and imply that the victim's life did not have worth. it probably had a great deal of worth to him and to those who loved him, who are now coping with the loss.

In all honesty what type of person takes time out of their day to google an article about this young man's past which is irrelevant to an article about his death? What does that have to do with his life being taken away by a senseless crime by some punk. Aside from what his past may hold he comes from a well to do family with working parents and he is older brother of Jaheem Toombs who plays "Fenwick Frazier" on Nickelodeon's "100 Things to Do Before High School" as well as other kid friendly shows and has starred in countless commercials and Nickelodeon projects. Unfortunately he ended up as so many other young men (in the streets) but was trying to change his life around and do the right thing before his untimely death.

Let us not take away from the fact that this young man's life was cut short to a senseless act of violence and is another homicide that this city has to solve. Everyone has done something in their past that they are not proud of and his past arrest did not define this man as an individual all together. I would hope that whatever mistakes you have learned from do not define you as an individual.

and let us not forget that "Every sinner has a future and every saint has a past"
