BOSTON — Gunfire tore through Tremont Street in the dead of night Sunday, leaving one person wounded and cars and businesses riddled with bullet holes in yet another outbreak of chaos under Mayor Wu’s “safe city” watch.

Police say the shooting erupted around 3:16 a.m. near 1522 Tremont Street, shaking the Mission Hill strip. A victim managed to get to the hospital on their own, surviving with non-life-threatening injuries.

But the scene told a darker story: ballistic scars were left behind on multiple vehicles and even a storefront, the street transformed into a crime-scene gallery of shattered glass and dented metal.

No arrests have been made. Detectives are still combing through the aftermath, while residents are left to wonder how Boston’s supposed “safest big city” keeps finding itself in the line of fire.
