At about 9:20 a.m., on Wednesday, July 24, members of the Youth Violence Strike Force arrested Tyrone Anderson, 39, of Dorchester, near 2 Yarmouth Place.
Anderson was wanted on a warrant from Roxbury District Court for unlawful possession of a firearm, discharging a firearm within 500 feet of a dwelling, and assault and battery with a dangerous weapon.

They found an adult male victim with a gunshot wound.
The injured man was taken to a local hospital with injuries not considered to be life-threatening.
