police activity on Elm Street?

Waiting for the bus home from the Square at about 6 pm, I saw a number of police cars with lights flashing near the Dunkin' Donuts on Elm Street. Any know what was going on?

While I'm sure there were plenty of people who emptied out of Sligo's, Barnaby's, the Blarney Stone, the Rosebud, and other long-ago establishments, there were certainly NOT people who spent every day sitting on benches in the square, and sleeping there at night. This is a new phenomenon, and began around the time the T station opened. There has been documentation around the fact that the Boston cops would empty out the common some nights by handing out tokens and suggesting that they 'get off at Davis'. Problem moved is problem solved, I guess.
