On October 31, 2022 at approximately 9:30PM Transit Police officers assigned to the South District were at the MBTA's Ashmont Station. While there a woman who was with her three young children alerted TPD officers about a group of juvenile males who were throwing eggs at her and her children. Officers approached the juvenile whom the reporting party identified as the main aggressor and observed a bowl of eggs near him as well as several broken eggs in the immediate area. The juvenile, 16 of Dorchester, provided a false name and was non-compliant with the officers. Ultimately the juvenile assaulted the officer and as the officers were attempting to place him into custody a crowd had gathered around the officers.
Another male juvenile, 16 of Dorchester, in his attempts to interfere with the officers was also placed into custody. During this time another adult male, later identified as Aaron Maloney-Callender, 29 of Mattapan, also interjected himself and displayed a knife at the officers. Officers engaged in a struggle with Maloney-Callender and ultimately were able to subdue him. Maloney-Callender was placed into custody for Assault by Means of a Dangerous Weapon, Disorderly Conduct and Resisting Arrest.
All three were transported to TPD-HQ for the arrest booking process.
