I myself used to be a resident of Grove st. where this brutal murder occured, and I am not surprised! I was forced to move because of the gang crime in that area. I am sure it was gang or drug violence. My family felt in danger on more than one event because of it! Chelsea should step up police patrol in this part of the city. My own brother was hanging around with “gang bangers” himself. The violence on this street ran me from my family home for the past 60 years. That is just unacceptable! This has gotten to a point where i am OUTRAGED! Chelsea do something about this!
