Last night, Friday, 8/5 at 2:15 am, a friend of mine was walking home at the intersection of Boylston and Center Street when he observed two white, males, likely teens, on bikes who seemed to be waiting for him. He over heard them same, "there is to much light here."
He called 911 and officer responded. He is ok.
When walking home at night:
Don't walk home alone
Do not use your iphone/driod while walking (mug me, I've got a nice phone)
