Police responded to the area of Washington Street and Armandine Street at around 2:42 p.m. Monday for a call for a person stabbed, and when they showed up, police found multiple people with apparent stab wounds, authorities said. All three victims — who were confirmed by Boston Public Schools to be students at TechBoston Academy — were taken to a local hospital and were expected to recover.
Wall is facing three counts of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon. He was held in lieu of a $5,000 bond and ordered to have no contact with the victims or other suspect. He is scheduled to appear in court on March 3 for a pretrial hearing.
On Monday, it was said that a student at the high school was arrested in connection with the incident. NBC10 Boston has reached out to Boston Public Schools for clarification on whether one or both of the suspects identified Tuesday are students.
