Shots Fired Near Mather

By Hana R. Alberts, Crimson Staff Writer

A late-night shooting at the corner of Franklin and Putnam Avenues, one block east of Mather House, left no one hurt and police searching for the perpetrator, according to Cambridge Police Department (CPD) spokesperson Frank T. Pasquarello.

A 23-year-old Boston man allegedly fired several shots into the back of a car containing three people at 3:05 a.m. on Saturday, Pasquarello said.

“He had some words of exchange with a group of people he knew [in the car],” Pasquarello said. “He followed them to Putnam and Franklin.”

The suspect fled after he fired the shots, but police used witness statements and on-scene evidence found by detectives to identify the armed assailant as Sherahd Mosley.

A CPD press release described Mosley as a 6’6’’ black male wearing a puffy green jacket.

Pasquarello said Mosley has both a Cambridge and a Boston address.

Police have a warrant for Mosley’s arrest and are searching for him, Pasquarello said.
