Anthony Hatfield distracted his pup Skipper long enough to put a handful of groceries in an already full backpack.
He still juggled a loaf of bread, a tarp and some dog food, but didn’t say no to whatever Daphne Cortese-Lambert and her volunteers at Del Norte Mission Possible offered.
“Anything I don’t use I’ll share with other people,” he said on a drizzly Thursday afternoon outside the Park City Superette.
The little market at the corner of Elk Valley and Howland Hill roads near Crescent City was the final stop of the day for DNMP’s new Winter Shelter-in-Place Project. For the past four weeks, volunteers have reached out to roughly 215 people, providing tarps, raincoats, food and garbage bags.
Steven Anthony Hatfield, 36, was arrested on Christmas day, police said in a statement Sunday.
Police said officers responded to a report of a person stabbed in the area of 208 Sumner St. on Thursday night, where they found a man suffering from an apparent stab wound. He was taken to a local hospital where he was later pronounced dead.
The victim s name has not been released.
Hatfield will be arraigned in East Boston District Court, police said.
The incident remains under investigation. Anyone with information is urged to contact police or the CrimeStoppers Tip Line at 1-800-494-TIPS.
Police also urge anyone affected by community violence to call the Boston Neighborhood Trauma Team at 617-431-0125 or visit BPHC.org/trauma.
