One suspect was shot and multiple police officers were injured in an incident Saturday morning at 212 Hemenway St., according to Boston police.
Dozens of officers from the Boston Police Department, or BPD, and the Northeastern University Police Department, or NUPD, responded to the incident at about 11:40 a.m. The incident marks the third alleged assault on or near Northeastern’s Boston campus in the past eight days.
In a 12:28 p.m. email to The Huntington News, Officer Michael Torigian of the Boston Police Department’s Office of Media Relations said the incident involved a code 303, denoting a use of deadly force or use of a firearm deemed necessary for de-escalation.
Torigian told The News the injured suspect and officers were transported to separate hospitals. As of publication, the suspect and officers’ conditions are unknown.
At 11:57 a.m., Northeastern sent an urgent NU alert to the Boston campus community warning of “police activity” in the area of 212 Hemenway St.. The alert stated there is “no active threat to campus” and instructed students to avoid the scene.
On March 27, a student was stabbed outside of Marino Recreation Center. The morning of April 1, a person unaffiliated with Northeastern was stabbed near East Village, and there were reports of shots fired on Gainsborough Street that evening.
