Last night Boston Police responded to a disturbance at 427 Commercial Street on Monday night where a man was seen being arrested. Several officers spoke with the man on the sidewalk before he was taken away.

the bike lane – a magnet for crime!!!
lol. this is a joke, yes?
At least there is SOME action on the bike lane.
One good thing, it will be a long time before it needs to be repaved due to overuse.
Sort of like the people who scream for a dog park then let their dogs crap on the street.
All this nonsense about a bicycle lane when drugs and addiction arte a bigger problem. Makes people in the neighborhood appear decrepit and lazy. I really wonder whether this was a case of public intoxication or this guy was doing business there.
Pretty sure it was public intoxication. It seemed as though the coast guard personnel who responded first, and then paramedics, tried giving suspect an opportunity to behave, but he kept yelling. His companion (leftmost woman in first photograph) repeatedly screamed at him to keep quiet, lest he be taken to jail. Some time later, police finally showed up arrested the man.
Sounds like he should have listened to his friend.
Ever try and reason with someone who has had one too many?
