On Monday, November 2, 2026, officers and detectives assigned to District B-2 (Roxbury) along with officers from Boston Housing Authority conducted a targeted enforcement operation focused on motorcycles, scooters and mopeds. The initiative was organized in response to ongoing public safety concerns regarding the use and storage of these vehicles in the Dorchester and Roxbury neighborhoods.
As a result of this operation, officers arrested one individual and towed ten off road vehicles for violations of the auto laws.
The Boston Police Department remains committed to improving traffic safety and will continue to conduct enforcement operations across the city.
