Two Robbers Captured at Pistol Point in West End
Two men were captured in the West End at pistol point after trying to rob at 1 am. George Greek, 25, of New York, and Speris Karavas, 4, a Mattapan wrestler, fled as police arrived. Greek surrendered. Karavas hid nearby as officers recovered a bulldog revolver and restrained them. The incident linked to the Taunton murder suspects and follows echoes of that case.
