Law enforcement was caught off guard by a white supremacist group's demonstration in Boston last weekend, according to Boston Mayor Michelle Wu.
Both Wu and U.S. Attorney for Massachusetts Rachael Rollins said they were told by Boston Police and the FBI that neither agency had advance warning that about 100 members of the group Patriot Front planned to march through downtown Boston wearing face coverings.allegedly assaultedWu said the city needs to be better prepared for the next time there's a public demonstration by a hate group.
Rollins said her office is"working hard" to determine if there are any federal or state charges that can be brought against the group. But police received no warnings before the march in Boston. Special agent in charge of the Boston FBI Field Office Joseph Bonavolonta said they can only intervene if they learn about a specific threat of violence in advance.
