"No more": Healey orders more state police response to car mobs

Driving the news: Healey said she ordered State Police Col. Geoffrey Noble to dedicate more resources to helping local police go after car mobs, where young people block off intersections and drag race in the streets.

• She wouldn't say what specifically state troopers will do differently, but added that they were already helping local officers with these incidents.
• She urged the public to report any activity and warned that offenders would be prosecuted.

What they're saying: "That's my message today: No more. No more," she told reporters Monday.

• "You will be held accountable."

The other side: The MassGOP posted a video of the torched Boston police cruiser on X and wrote, "Paging President Trump: this is the state of Boston."

• Leanne Harris, a MassGOP state committee member, tagged Attorney General Pam Bondi in an X post highlighting footage of pro-Palestinian protesters clashing with Boston police Tuesday night. (Police arrested 13 people in connection with the confrontation.)

• A White House official declined to address any specific future National Guard deployments, to avoid getting ahead of potential announcements from the president.

What we're watching: Two Rhode Island men face criminal charges in connection with the car mob that descended on the South End early Sunday, torching a police cruiser.

• Fall River police arrested five people after a similar incident this weekend.
• The other car mobs remain under investigation.
