More charges have been brought against a Dorchester man arrested in connection with a shooting near Dorchester’s Caribbean Carnival Festival last month.
Gerald L. Vick Jr. was charged Friday with six counts of assault and battery by means of a dangerous weapon, armed assault to murder, unlawful possession of a machine gun, and other offenses, police said.
A Dorchester man who had been arrested on gun charges after the Caribbean Festival mass shooting last week is now accused of shooting six of the eight victims, according to Boston Police.
