14-year-old boy fatally shot in Roxbury identified by police

The Boston Police Department identified the 14-year-old boy killed in a Roxbury double shooting as Rasante Osorio of Dorchester.

Osorio was shot multiple times at 2990 Washington St. and was brought to a local hospital where he died from his injuries, police said.

A second unidentified individual was also shot, but did not have life-threatening injuries.

Boston Public Schools Superintendent Mary Skipper confirmed to The Boston Globe that Osorio was a BPS student.

“Counselors and support staff are on the ground providing support to students and staff as we grieve as a community,” Skipper said in a statement to the Globe. “We must collectively come together as a community to end gun violence so that no parent, teacher, classmate, or anyone experiences the preventable loss of our youth.”
