Neighbors in the area tell NBC10 Boston they heard about six to eight gunshots.
"I look out my window, which faces the alleyway, and I see something maybe on the ground, and I'm not quite sure what it is, and then like a minute later, the police show up," said one man, who did not give his name. "As soon as the cops arrived, I was like, 'Oh god, this is not happening.'"
Dozens of evidence placards were scattered on the ground at the scene near the enVision Hotel, where police found a dark-colored car with a passenger side window riddled with bullet holes.
No further information was immediately available. Anyone who can aid in this investigation is asked to contact police.
