Boston Police report an argument at the Ka-Carlos Bar and Grill, 33 Hancock St. in Uphams Corner, left two dead and one injured early this morning.

One man, 47, was pronounced dead inside Ka-Carlos, which specializes in Cape Verdean food, police say. The Web site ForCV identifies him as Manny Monteiro, a chef who was working two jobs to put his daughters through college, and who formerly worked at Phillips Old Colony in Dorchester as a sous-chef.

A second man, 20, was found around the corner at 8 Bird St. with multiple gunshot wounds and was rushed to Boston Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead. A third victim, 23, got himself to Boston Medical Center, where he was treated for a gunshot wound to the leg.

Police say:

According to witnesses, an altercation began inside the premise. Witnesses further stated that as the altercation moved its way outside, witnesses say they could hear shots being fired.

Tyson Jenkins, 20, of Dorchester, and a 16-year-old, also from Dorchester, were both charged with unarmed robbery and assault and battery. The third suspect remains at large, police say.

Bobby Constantino gets off the 15 bus in Uphams Corner just in time to see Officer Monteiro in action:

... After, he moved on to the next group, riding and beeping his horn, talking to everyone he saw. Everyone knew him, everyone talked to him, and it made me so happy to see him out there.

It's a no-brainer that this is the best way to create a good bond between residents and police; a bond that is critical in communities touched by violence. Although we don't see it nearly enough in Boston, luckily in my neighborhood we have Officer Monteiro. ...
