Investigators have determined that the allegations made this morning by the 11 year-old boy in Roslindale were false. Thank you for your assistance and cooperation in this matter.

Kindly disregard the rest of this post. Thank you.

*****************************************************

Boston Police are reporting an 11-year-old boy was abducted and assaulted while walking to the Mozart School in Roslindale (about 3/4 mile from my house) this morning.

The van contained two white males in their early twenties. The driver is described as a white male wearing a Boston Red Sox cap. The passenger is described as being a white male with curly spiked hair, wearing a white t-shirt and blue jeans. At that location, the passenger opened the passenger side sliding door and forcibly took the victim into the white van. The van is described as having bench seats inside, white in color, with scratches on the side and a partial white plate with red numbers 547.

Additional information:

The victim additionally reported to investigators that he left his black and gray backpack inside the van. This backpack contains the victim's school books and papers. The suspects could have possibly discarded this item. Anyone that comes across a backpack fitting this description is urged to call police.

Let's hope they catch these scumbags...quick.
