MAN STABBED AND KILLED IN FRONT OF ROXBURY COURTHOUSE



(Boston, MA - August 15, 2012) A young man lost his life to a violent knife attack this afternoon. The victim, 25-year-old Rashad "Rizzy" Drogba was allegedly involved in an argument on the MBTA Bus #23 with another man. According to witnesses, the man got off the bus, dropped a knife and picked it back up ehere he proceeded to stab Drogba repeatedly in the neck area prison-style.

A 43-year-old man tended to the victim and said Drogba's neck was "nasty and slashed up bad". Drogba asked for help saying "Give me some help. I'm getting weak. I'm losing it". The attack happened around 2:30pm just outside of the Roxbury Library and steps away from the Roxbury District Courthouse. The Boston Police Area B-2 Police Station is just around the corner.

A man playing chess outside the library said the young man stumbled across the street asking for help after the suspect ran from the scene adjacent to the courthouse. Minutes later, the victim was taken to the hospital and the entire area was taped off by police, including the bus where the incident began, and one witness' automobile where the victim's blood could be seen. Upon arrival at the scene, Three Stripes Media witnesses the young man being helped into an ambulance by emergency workers while a large crowd of onlookers and shocked members of the community stood in disbelief.

Rashad Drogba, also known as "Rizzy" was later pronounced dead. The young man was in a dance crew well known to the youth in the City, and a look at his facebook and twitter accounts show an innocent child who lost his life to violence unwarranted.

  5. I understand some of the close friends do not wish to see this news piece. But for those who do not know the effects of violence and the consequences, is why this is posted. They need to know the VALUE OF LIFE. It is time to get serious about showing what these ANIMALS are doing to us and our people. This was not posted with the intention of creating harm to any family members or friends, but to MAKE THE KILLER AND THEIR FAMILY AND FRIENDS SEE WHAT THEY HAVE DONE. Please do not take us as "their" media. We are "OUR" media, and we WILL GET JUSTICE BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY
