Summary:Chief Daryl K. Roberts was responding to a hit-and-run Friday afternoon that left a 78-year-old city man paralyzed, lying in the middle of Park Street under full view of passing motorists and onlookers, the savage beating and robbery Monday morning of former Deputy Mayor Nicholas Carbone and the discovery Wednesday of a badly decomposed body of a man in the basement of his family's recently foreclosed home. Roberts, normally upbeat about the prospects for reversing the city's reputation for violence and creating an atmosphere of safety, was appalled by the daylight attack on Carbone, who was assaulted by several young men as he walked to breakfast on Capitol Avenue, and a video of the hit-and-run shot from a streetlight camera on a bustling Park Street at 5:45 p.m. May 30.
