A rare slow news day in Quincy

Pedestrian whackings by motor vehicles in Quincy are so frequent an event of late that such a whacking has to have a hook to be worth Quincy Quarry News coverage.
Unless it is a slow news day, that is.
A whacking on Sunday past is just such a whacking worth coverage on any day.
Per the the scanner radio chatter, a pedestrian whacking in the vicinity of 162 South Street was also suspected to be an intentional whacking.
Police, firefighters — whatever

Further, to complete the trifecta, per the radio chatter this whacking appeared to perhaps additionally include a hostage situation.
Accordingly, a firefighter on the scene calling in to dispatch over the suspected hostage angle was told to hold back until appropriate police back-up arrived at the scene.
In short, yet another new low for pedestrian safety on the ever-increasingly mean as well as dangerous streets of Quincy.
