Braintree Teen Accused Of Punching T Window After Patriots Parade

BRAINTREE, MA — A Braintree teen will be summoned to juvenile court after police said he vandalized a train on Tuesday, causing delays for people trying to get home from the Patriots Super Bowl parade.

The 15-year-old boy, who wasn't identified because of his age, punched out a window on a Red Line Train at Park Street, Transit Police said.

"The car had to be removed from service due to the damage at a time when it was most needed," police said in a press release.

By this time, most MBTA lines were already overwhelmed with historic ridership after the parade and Keolis admitted it was already struggling to keep up.
