Teen shot by Boston cop to be arraigned
BOSTON --Bail has been set at $3,000 for a teenager shot by a Boston police officer during a drug investigation.
Police say Ariel Lara Aguasviva of Jamaica Plain was shot in the chest during a struggle with the officer after a vehicle stop in the East Boston neighborhood Wednesday night.
He's charged with distributing heroin, assault and battery on a police officer and other offenses. During his arraignment Thursday in East Boston District Court, a judge ordered Aguasviva to stay away from the neighborhood.
A second man, 22-year-old Jorge Luis Ortiz Lara of Palmer, was charged with drug offenses and held on $500 bail.
Police said the officer was working with state police on an investigation when he tried to stop a sport utility vehicle.
