The suspect, caught in photos blasted out by Boston Police, is believed to hang around Hazelwood Street. Officers from District B-2 are scrambling to piece together what happened during the armed incident.

Police haven’t said what sparked the showdown, but it was brazen enough to draw a citywide “Community Alert.” In plain English: if you recognize the guy, call the cops — fast.

Anyone with info is urged to call District B-2 Detectives at (617) 343-4275.
