Woman dies in fall down Fort Point shaft

Boston Police are investigating why a woman fell to her death down a shaft in a Summer Street building tonight.

The Boston Fire Department, which initially responded to a call for a person down a shaft at 281 Summer St., said their search was at first hampered because the roof was dark and the building has more than one shaft. After more than an hour searching - and breaking down walls to several shafts - rescuers found her body at the bottom of a shaft on the third floor, the department says. The building is eight stories tall on one side; seven on another.

She was declared dead at the scene. The medical examiner's office will conduct an autopsy.

Some T employees still haven't gotten the memo about photos

Adam Weiss reports a T worker at State Street ordered him to put away his camera "because of 9/11."

Weiss adds it was one of the orange vests, not a T cop, and that he would have tried to explain the T's photo policy, but his train was pulling in.

Police: Dorchester bank robber gets greedy, gets caught

Boston Police report a man who robbed the Mt. Washington Bank at 489 Gallivan Blvd. on Sept. 1 returned on Thursday - only to be confronted by a fed-up Good Samaritan who managed to delay him until police arrived.

Kevin Rosher, 30, now faces two charges of armed robbery and one count of making a false bomb threat - when the bank customer confronted him, he started yelling he had a bomb, only he didn't, police say.

According to police, when officers arrived - summoned by the panic alarms tellers pressed as soon as they saw Rosher enter the bank:

Officers encountered the suspect who was involved in an altercation with a bank customer. Officers quickly apprehended the suspect. Officers spoke to the bank customer and obvious Good Samaritan who stated that he observed the suspect enter the bank with his hood up. According to the bank customer, he could tell the suspect was up to no good so he followed him when he left the bank. When the suspect entered the lobby of the bank, the bank customer confronted him.

Innocent, etc.
