The department also said it arrested a 19-year-old man for driving his moped through an active crime scene Saturday.
Police say Giraldy Guerrero, of Braintree, Massachusetts, was travelling at a high rate of speed through an area that police had cordoned off with yellow crime scene tape after a man had been shot and sustained non-life threatening injuries.
The department said multiple officers shouted for Guerrero to stop, but he refused. He crashed into an officer causing non-life threatening injuries and was detained following a foot chase and violent struggle.
Guerrero faces charges including assault and battery on a police officer, leaving the scene of an accident, and resisting arrest. It couldn’t be immediately determined if he has a lawyer.
