Foxborough Teen Accused in 2025 Dorchester Double Murder
Boston police say the 16-year-old is also charged with carrying a firearm without a license in the 2025 killings.
- On Wednesday, the Boston Police Fugitive Unit arrested a 16-year-old from Foxborough in connection with the May 24, 2025, shooting deaths of two men in Dorchester.
- Officers responding to 38 Franklin Hill Avenue on May 24, 2025, found Walter Wilkens, 36, of Quincy and Anthony McIntosh, 66, of Dorchester suffering from gunshot wounds; both died at local hospitals.
- Suffolk Superior Court issued the warrant charging the suspect with two counts of murder and one count of carrying a firearm without a license, his second offense, with assistance from the U.S. Marshals Service and Massachusetts State Police.
- Dennis Matulewicz, U.S. Marshal for Massachusetts, said the apprehension "brings some measure of comfort to the victims' families and moves them one step closer to justice," though no arrest can undo the tragic loss.
- Authorities are withholding the suspect's identity because he is under 18, while the Boston Police Department's Homicide Unit continues investigating; no court appearance date has been scheduled.
