A reputed member of the MS-13 street gang was busted yesterday for attacking an East Boston motorist with a machete, police sources said.
The arrest of Maurizo ``Spooky'' Lopes, 19, is the second arrest of a machete-wielding member of the notorious gang this week. Monday, another MS-13 member was busted for carrying a machete and allegedly threatened to kill his arresting officer, snarling the violent promise in Spanish followed by an MS-13 code ``La Trucha.''
Lopes is suspected in the June 16 attack on an East Boston man who was slashed across the arm on a corner near Maverick Square, the sources said.
``He was just in the wrong place at the wrong time,'' one investigator said of the victim. ``He's lucky he was able to drive away, or he could have lost his arm.''
MS-13 members in El Salvador have been eyed for links to terrorists, and the gang is currently the FBI's primary gang target.RIP Butterbean! We miss you and hope you are well in heaven.-- Your ALIPAC friends
