Trio Arrested After Assault in South BostonOfficers in District 6 responded to a call for a group fighting with baseball bats at O Street and Swallow Street. As a result of an on-scene investigation, officers arrested Patrick Fumarola, 17, of Dorchester, Joseph McDonough, 20, of South Boston and a Juvenile, 16, of South Boston, charging them with Assault by means of a Dangerous Weapon. The trio was allegedly doing drugs on the steps of a Swallow Street address and was asked to leave by a neighbor when they became confrontational. The exchange of words quickly escalated into a physical confrontation during which the three males armed themselves with baseball bats and a chain swinging them towards a male victim. All three were identified and taken into custody as they were walking away from the scene.
