As 2017 begins, here's a look at the five most-read stories of 2016 here at Jamaica Plain News. 5. Man Shot Outside 7-Eleven
Luckily, and thanks the efforts of police and residents, crime was not overall a huge story in JP in 2016. However, isolated violence did continue this past year. Jeffrey Kelly, 28, was killed outside the South Huntington 7-Eleven in August.
Devotees of one of the best bakeries in the neighborhood - indeed, in the whole city - might have been nervous at the red tape on the door at Canto 6 the last two days. But rest easy. A voice mail message from the 3346 Washington St. bakery says it is closed for "bakery repairs" Tuesday and Wednesday, set to reopen at 7 a.m. on Thursday. Workers at the site said the glass is being replaced.
