Cops No Convenience For Hyde Park Clerk

"Two Boston police officers on leave after fight with store clerk" by Travis Andersen |  Globe Staff, July 25, 2013

Two Boston police officers have been placed on paid leave while officials investigate an alleged altercation that one of them had with a clerk at a convenience store located near their district station in Hyde Park....

Jake Wark, a spokesman for District Attorney Daniel F. Conley, said prosecutors “understand that there is videotape” of the incident from the store’s surveillance system.

“We have not had a chance to review it, but the allegations, if true, are deeply disturbing,” Wark said.

No arrests had been made by Wednesday evening.

A worker at the store referred questions to the chain’s corporate headquarters in Rockland. Company representatives did not respond to inquiries.
