The T supervisor trifecta

MBTA supervisor's car

Maybe there's a good reason an MBTA supervisor was blocking a handicap space and the sidewalk while parked on grass along Beacon Street today, but Todd Kirrane, who took the picture, says the driver just seemed to have stopped to do some shopping.

Police: Alleged restaurant burglar was really stuck up

Boston Police report a teenager nabbed trying to chisel his way into a check-cashing store in February was arrested again this morning - this time after he got himself trapped trying to burglarize a Morton Street restaurant.

Police say workers opening up La Belle Capoise restaurant at 884 Morton St. this morning were surprised to hear somebody crying for help.

Police say Frandy Jean, 17, broke into the restaurant sometime overnight and had then somehow gotten himself wedged between floorboards and a freezer:

The suspect was extricated by Boston Police and Boston Fire then transported to Brigham and Women’s Hospital for further evaluation and treatment. Suspect is listed in critical condition.

Police say that once he recovers, Jean will have to appear in court on charges of breaking and entering in the nighttime and possession of burglarious tools.

Innocent, etc.

Police seek Marathon runner knocked to ground by alleged jerk in Brighton

Boston Police report they are looking for a runner they say was smashed into by a guy who wanted to run alongside a pal in Cleveland Circle, to aid them in their case against him.

Police say officers watched the guy jump over metal barriers on Chestnut Hill Avenue near Englewood Avenue around 2:20 p.m., then "violently" knock the runner down "in an effort to meet with a friend who was running in the marathon."

The crush of runners prevented officers from getting to the woman, whom police say was helped to her feet by other runners and then assisted in continuing toward Cleveland Circle. Police add officers were unable to see her bib number.

Police describe her as a a white woman, 35-40, with a slim build and dark hair and wearing dark running gear. If you know the bruised runner, or saw her getting knocked down, contact detectives at 617-343-4335.

In contrast, police say, they were able to catch up with the suspect, who will be summonsed to court to face charges of disorderly conduct and disturbing a public assembly.
