Spit, blood fly during Hub arrest
The Boston Herald ^ | 01/10/2006 | Thomas Caywood

In the latest incident of brazen junkies invading the area around Boston Common, a hostile woman claiming to be HIV-positive spat at and flung blood toward transit cops who busted her and a male companion for smoking crack in a Tremont Street doorway, police said. Shocked citizens who said they saw the pair huddled over a glass crack pipe yesterday morning grabbed a passing MBTA cop. The woman, who cut her palms trying to smash a glass item, raged as responding MBTA cops took her into custody, police said. “She got belligerent, yelling at us and saying she was HIV-positive,” said Lt. Sal Venturelli, who was on his way to Suffolk Law School to teach a police class. “Her hand was bloody, and she threatened the officers with blood. She was flinging blood and spitting at us.” Lauren Vallee, 26, no known address, was arrested on numerous warrants and charged with assault with a dangerous weapon, assault and battery on a police officer and possession of a hypodermic syringe. None of the officers was hit by the blood or spit, Venturelli said, but they’ll be tested for HIV as a precaution.

If I ever go to Boston, I'll drive and I'll be armed.
