by a ballpoint pen? not a pen-knife?
boston.com (not that they're more accurate than you by any means) says it was a knife. I'm wondering if it was really a pen-knife (a small knife)
Scary
The Globe is now saying the victim was stabbed with a knife. Either way, very scary how brazen that attack was. Ashmont is still hopping at 9.
