How Lenox Street got identified as being in the South End

Boston Police identify addresses by their "patrol districts." In the case of the Lenox Street shootings, even though Lenox Street is in Roxbury, initial BPD reports placed it in the South End because it's part of the South End patrol district, which extends all the way to Melnea Cass Boulevard.

Idea for BPDNews: Since neighborhoods are obviously an issue when it comes to violent-crime reports, put up some maps showing these patrol districts so people can see where any future discrepancies might be (for example, in my neck of the woods, Roslindale is an amorphous blob that sometimes might be identified as West Roxbury or Hyde Park).

Roxbury or the South End, somebody's still dead.
