Wanted In Connection To False Alarms At MBTA Stations: Police

BOSTON — Police are asking for the public's help in finding a man who they say is wanted in connection with three fire alarms going off in one day - with no fire. Transit Police said false fire alarms went off between 4:30 p.m. and 4:15 p.m. at State Street, Downtown Crossing and Davis Square Stations, on Tuesday, Sept. 17.

Several people tweeted on that day about the alarms going off:

It's illegal to pull a fire alarm without an actual need.

"Whoever, without reasonable cause, by outcry or the ringing of bells, or otherwise, makes or circulates or causes to be made or circulated a false alarm of fire shall be punished by a fine of not less than one hundred dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or by imprisonment," reads state law.

Police are urging anyone who might know the whereabouts or identity of the man in the above pictures to contact their Criminal Investigations Unit at 617-222-1050.
