ROXBURY — Broad-daylight chaos erupted in Roxbury when a crew of suspects allegedly launched a 9am beatdown that left detectives scrambling and the neighborhood on edge.

Police say the violent clash went down around 9:48 AM on Saturday, September 27, near Cheney Street and Hartwell Street — a time when most families were just pouring coffee and starting their weekend. Instead, the corner turned into a crime scene.

Images now released by Boston Police show individuals wanted for questioning in connection with the aggravated assault. Detectives assigned to District B-2 are combing through evidence but say they need the public’s help to unmask the faces in the photos.

Authorities aren’t pulling punches: they blasted out a community alert urging anyone with information to call District B-2 detectives directly at (617) 343-4275. For those wary of coming forward, Boston’s CrimeStoppers tip line offers anonymity — 1-800-494-TIPS by phone, text “TIP” to CRIME (27463), or submit tips and videos online. Police promise every identity will be strictly protected.

The suspects remain on the loose, and investigators say the hunt is intensifying. For Roxbury residents, it’s a chilling reminder that in Boston even a Saturday morning can turn into a headline-grabbing brawl.
