At about 1:47 PM, on October 27, 2020, officers assigned to the Citywide 2 Drug Control Unit, along with the FBI Gang Task Force, arrested James Thomas, 43, of Dorchester.

As a result of an ongoing investigation, it was revealed that Mr. Thomas had two outstanding drug warrants. Officers located Thomas in the area of Maywood Street and Blue Hill Avenue in Dorchester.
