Police: Quincy man shows up in Hyde Park and mugs, punches woman at commuter-rail stop

Boston Police report a woman waiting for a train at the Hyde Park commuter-rail stop in Cleary Square yesterday afternoon was mugged at knifepoint by a man who got annoyed when she had no money so he grabbed her and punched her in the face.

Police say her screams attracted officers patrolling the area, who saw a guy running away from the station. He refused to stop for officers, so they chased him, caught him and brought him to E-13 a block or so away.

Walter Harris, 48, of Quincy, was charged with armed robbery and assault and battery by means of a dangerous weapon.

Innocent, etc.
