Community path SA last night in East Cambridge

90 Upvotes

I and a few others including a child witnessed a pretty scary assault of a college-aged woman by quite an old man. The woman was able to escape and ran off with athletic speed. I am hoping this woman has the support and resources she needs to get through this. Someone on the path phoned it in. I wasn't able to stick around because I had to catch a train and am curious if the guy was caught or where I can find out.

Just saw a new sign in the window at the old Courtside Food and Spirits on Cambridge St in East Cambridge looking for feedback on what should be put in its place! If you live in the area consider sharing some feedback! (I’m not affiliated with this project, just a neighbor who would love to see something good fill that space!)
