Man shot, killed in Dorchester late Tuesday night

A man was shot and killed on Michigan Avenue in Dorchester Tuesday night, according to Boston Police.

Boston police responded to a ShotSpotter activation at 15 Michigan Ave. in Dorchester around 8:03 p.m. Tuesday. Officers found a man with multiple gunshot wounds. He was pronounced dead at the scene, Boston Police Deputy Superintendent Paul McLaughlin told reporters during a brief press conference.

No arrests have been made.

Suffolk County District Attorney Kevin Hayden urged members of the community to come forward to aid in the investigation, which he said is still in its early stages.

“One homicide in this city is one too many, plain and simple,” Hayden told reporters. “What’s happened here tonight is another act of completely census violence, and we won’t rest until we do the best we can to solve this and other cases and apprehend individuals.”

“We just got to continue to keep doing the work that we need to do to keep this city safe,” he added.

Police encouraged anyone with information to call the department at 617-343-4470. Anonymous tips can be submitted via text at 1-800-494-TIPS.
