Police received a call for a shooting on Christmas in Boston's Roslindale neighborhood, but it was all a hoax.
Boston police say responding officers were able to quickly determine no shooting had taken place at a residence on Augustus Avenue, after there was a call into Boston's 311 tip line around 5:30 p.m. Monday.
The address happens to be near the home of Boston Mayor Michelle Wu, police said.
The incident is under investigation.
