Boston police tighten strike on crooks with armed patrols
The Boston police chief issues a broad order to repel criminals from both inside and outside the city. Officers are to carry department firearms, stay in plain clothes or uniform as needed, and shoot if a suspect draws a weapon. Inspectors monitor trains and autos, pawn shops, and known fences, while district detectives cover large areas with limited staff. The move mirrors actions in other cities as authorities warn citizens to cooperate and stay vigilant.
