The double shooting comes one day after a very violent night in the city, in which two people were killed and four others were injured. Police responded Sunday night to a deadly shooting in Roxbury, another deadly shooting on the Dorchester/Roxbury line, a shooting in Dorchester, and a triple stabbing, also in Dorchester.
No arrests have been announced in any of these cases.
Suffolk County District Attorney Kevin Hayden said in a statement that we should all be outraged by the "calamitous violence that rocked" Boston Sunday night.
"My heart cries out for our city and for everyone impacted by these tragedies. We'll work tirelessly to bring the perpetrators to justice and we ask anyone in the community with information to please help us," he said. "It is high time, the necessary time indeed, for a tidal attitude shift around illegal gun possession and the havoc it wreaks."
