Multiple people pointed the officers to a man, later identified as Larson, fleeing the scene on foot. The officers chased after and apprehended him.
According to police, Larson had a “severe laceration to his hand that required the officer to place a tourniquet on his arm to stop the bleeding.”
Police said the investigation indicated that Larson had punched the victim several times before throwing him through the window.
The 23-year-old is expected to be arraigned in Boston Municipal Court.
