NextImg:Boston SWAT officers arrest barber shop robbery suspects, no injures reported

SWAT officers ended a standoff in Dorchester that ended with no injuries after a barber shop was robbed.

Deputy Superintendent Joseph Gillespie said a call came in at 4:02 p.m. Thursday for a an armed robbery in progress on Blue Hill Avenue in a barber shop.

“On arrival, the offices discovered that the individuals inside a barber shop, the owner, we robbed by mask individuals who fled the scene,” Gillespie told reporters.

A motor vehicle involved was soon spotted in the area and the suspects had run into a home on Adams Street and that’s when the Boston Police SWAT team and partner negotiators went into action.

“After they negotiated and used deescalation tactics,” Gillespie said, “two of the suspects were removed from the house without incident.” He added the third suspect remained and SWAT moved in and arrested him.

No injuries were reported.

“I’d like to say how proud I am of our officers for their restraint and professionalism,” he added. The superintendent also thanked residents for their “patience” while SWAT did their jobs.
