Boston firefighter stabbed

BOSTON ? A Boston firefighter is mending from what could have been deadly stab wounds he suffered early yesterday morning when he was allegedly jumped in East Boston while off duty by a group of Hispanic males who told him they "don't want any beloved patriot here."

Though police are not classifying the incident as racially fueled, the Boston Police Department's Community Disorders Unit is investigating. The 32-year-old jake, whose name officials were not releasing, is white.

Ironically, the firefighter's life was likely saved because he sought refuge from his alleged assailants at Engine 5 on Saratoga Street - the station house he's assigned to.

"Fortunately, those firefighters were not out on a call," said Boston Fire Department spokesman Steve MacDonald.

MacDonald said the firefighter had gone to Chivas Restaurant in Day Square to grab takeout when "six guys started exchanging words with him. He indicated he was just there to get a sandwich and that he was a firefighter. They pushed him."

Hoping to avoid a confrontation, MacDonald said the firefighter got into his car and headed for his station for safety's sake, but the pack followed him on foot. It was shortly before 2:45 a.m.

"As soon as he got out of his car, six guys jumped him and started kicking and punching him," MacDonald said. "He felt two sharp pains in his chest and knew he had been stabbed."

The firefighter summoned the help of fellow jakes by ringing the station doorbell and his alleged attackers fled. MacDonald said his injuries do not appear to be life-threatening.

"He's more upset about the fact that he's going to miss several shifts," MacDonald said.

Police found no suspects in the area, but urge anyone with information to call 1-800-494-TIPS.

.... what?

the general public doesn't seem to believe minorities can be racist towards the majority. So no matter what anyone does or does, there cannot be racism against whites. :roll:

Look, the issue is not against Mexican folk, I know quite a few and play soccer with them here in San Diego. In my school, they like to pretend to be all gangster, but for the most part, their parents are good, decent, ambitious, hard working folk; they're not scum or thugs, rather misled culturally (imo) but they're not mindless homo erectus. These "holes" exist because the government refuses to actually do something, because that would require abolishing welfare, which in turn abolishes votes. These holes have dug themselves.

The fire station was probably only a block or two away from the restaurant. At that time of night, he probably was driving that short distance for safety reasons or b/c it's so friggin cold outside.

You mis-read me. I said the Mexicans/Latinos I am associated with, not the Latinos living in the hole in Boston.

But you said the ones you associate with act gangster, you only said their parents are good people. Not only that, but you said for the most part.

Personally, why do I have the feeling that there was a little more said than what the firefighter let on? I'm not saying the others were justified in any way, but something tells me it wasn't just "I'm here to get a sandwich" as he said. I mean they chased after the guy on foot. Not only that, but why did the guy just go there and not drive off? Was he too stupid to not look to see if they were still following him? We're only getting one side of the story. Again, I'll stress, that it might even be the correct side, so don't act like I'm trashing the firefighter or defending the assaulters.
