Residents back Boston cop who shot man wielding stake | Boston Herald

At 11:15 p.m. Thursday, police received multiple calls about a man assaulting people in the area of 2 Howe Terrace, Police Commissioner William B. Evans said. The man allegedly attacked one person with a wooden stake and punched a vehicle and chased it down the street, Evans said.​

No word from Buffy if she'll post bond for her apprentice.

So basically vampires just need to wear a bulletproof vest and you can't stake them anymore. It's back to old-school silver, beheading, and fire to get rid of the blood suckers.

Things are getting so wierd. But, since we've already crossed into the pale and out the other side... One guy they interviewed said the cop was justified in shooting the man who assaulted him with a stake. I wonder if this same man (from Massachusetts mind you) would have felt the same way if it were not a cop doing the shooting. At any rate, it doesn't matter. I highly doubt the stake was rose wood, nor was the bullet silver. So everybody fails.

I highly doubt the stake was rose wood.

Unless you're watching vampire diaries, then the stake has to be from the original White Oak tree.

This guy's career as a vamp. hunter was almost over any way's. He was breaking one of the main rules of hunting ...Don't let the mortals see you...

When stakes are outlawed, only outlaws will be able to pitch tents.

I will have to make sure to not wear my cape when I go to Somerville this Saturday......
I also hope no one brings a stake to a gunfight........

I hate to be a stickler, but silver is for werewolves. Sunlight kills vampires. Geez

If you want to be a stickler, sunlight sets them on fire. The fire actually kills them. In some vampire folklore, silver does injure or kill vampires. This happens in Blade, True Blood, and The Witcher series. Silver is the do-all material for monster hunters.

No mention of the good old standby garlic and holy water?

I need a tutor on these freaky creatures. I can't keep up. I should watch more TV I guess

The real question is why was the cop so afraid of the wooden stake? Unless, the cop was the vampire he was hunting.

I hate to be a stickler but TV shows and movies don't count as folklore...

You mean vampires don't actually sparkle in the sunlight like in Twilight???

What's next? You gonna tell me Hobbits don't actually have big feet??
