(07/22/08-Boston,Mass) After a Boston police officer spotted a woman screaming for help as she leaned out a car’s passenger side window, a high speed chase ensued on the southeast expressway. After nearly 8 miles, police boxed the car in between an innocent driver’s SUV and a guardrail. The driver then repeatedly rammed the car in front and several cruisers, wreaking havoc along the highway. The victim said the woman driving was her wife and that they got into an argument. Here, below top, guns drawn then an innocent driver whose car inadvertently blocked in the suspect’s car is protected by police. Below bottom is the dramatic sequence. Photographed while on my Herald shift.

Scenes from Storrow Drive as trooper 1049 runs a speed trap as drivers move over. This also shows an alleged speeder looking in disbelief at the trooper who is trying to pull her over safely to the side of the road to administer speedy justice. He then shows the driver the evidence, his radar.
Dick & Sons barber shop, a north shore landmark, will be closing after 72 years in business. Dick Maniglia, an immigrant from Sicily, started the business in 1935.
