Boston police said they arrested a Massachusetts teen on Boylston Street after they saw him throw an unopened can of beer at one of the duck boats, striking an adult male party on board.

Patrick Connolly, 19, of Sandwich, is charged with assault and battery by means of a dangerous weapon and disorderly conduct. He is scheduled to be arraigned in Boston Municipal Court.

Shouldn't he be charged with alcohol abuse?

Whatever it is, it doesn’t appear to be assault. Reckless or negligent behavior, sure.
