After Boston Police responded to two reported security breaches, at the Horace Dodd House LLC development site at 190-190A Salem Street and 4 Snelling Place, residents were assured that property had been secured by general contractor Anthony Bellarti, a former City of Boston Inspectional Services Department (ISD) Inspector.
However, just a few days later, police responded to an additional 911 call at the same site, easily gaining access through a mesh barrier leading to the property.
Residents told the Review that the area, as of this article, has not been properly secured.
The first incident involved a man arrested naked in a home adjacent to the construction site, where it is believed he gained access.
The second incident occurred when a large group of teenagers apparently breached security and had to be removed from the project site.
Police responded a third time, when a resident called 911 again claiming they saw teenagers going in and out of the site.
They claim the area is being used as a toilet or for drug use.
While police didn’t find anyone on the property, they did assess the property as easily as residents claimed they would.
