It's too bad there's not an extra penalty for being dumbasses

You'd think if you'd just held up some guy at knifepoint in the Public Garden, you might want to get away from the area fast. Boston Police report, however, that when they arrived, they took the victim for a ride in a cruiser - and that they promptly spotted the trio - two of them 16 and one 15 - near the Common. All three arrested and charged with armed robbery.

Stupid f'ckin kids. Threaten a man with a knife and steal his money and iPod.

At about 12:26am, on July 7, 2008, officers from Area A-1 (Downtown) responded to a radio call for an armed robbery in the area of the Public Garden. On arrival, officers spoke to the victim who stated that three Hispanic males approached him, showed a knife and demanded money. According to the victim, after taking an undisclosed money and his iPod, the suspects fled. Officers then drove the victim around the Boston Common in hopes of finding and locating the suspects. In short time, the victim observed the individuals who robbed him. After all the suspects were positively identified, officers arrested two 16 year-old males from Boston and a 15 year-old from Roslindale and charged all three with Armed Robbery.

How can two of them be from "Boston" and one be from "Roslindale"?

Wouldn't that mean that all three are from "Boston"?

If we're going to be specific, be specific.

Perhaps BPD calls "Boston Proper" Boston?
