Here are highlights from the police blotter for Jamaica Plain from Thursday, April 9 through Tuesday, April 14. You can view incidents in the interactive map above and a text list below.
Among the incidents for this period was police arresting a man for allegedly trespassing at 3118 Washington St. That’s significant because the building has long been on the city’s “problem properties” list. The owners of the building recently promised police and community members to improve the building by hiring an superintendent and installing security cameras.
The time listed is when the incident allegedly took place, not when it was reported. Arrests and charges are not convictions.
