Salem Police Arrest Three in Targeted Shooting, No Injuries Reported

Three teenagers were arrested Friday morning in connection with a targeted shooting on Albion Street in Salem earlier in the week, where at least 66 shots were fired but no injuries were reported. The suspects—Ronnie Cato of Dorchester, John King-Marshall of Quincy, and Richardson Frederic of Somerville—allegedly fled Salem after the attack, which damaged vehicles, buildings, and signs in the neighborhood.

All three face multiple charges, including armed assault with intent to murder and several firearms offenses, and authorities recovered two firearms during the arrests. The rapid and coordinated police response was credited with quickly identifying and apprehending the suspects. The arrests have brought some relief to the community following the dangerous and disruptive event.
