By all appearances Shaun Harrison was living an exemplary life. He was a dean at a Boston public high school. He mentored young people... Now, Harrison is charged with armed assault with intent to murder, aggravated assault and battery with a dangerous weapon. He’s also facing multiple weapons charges...

While he was working as “dean of academy” at English High, Harrison was also running a marijuana distribution enterprise, according to Suffolk County Assistant District Attorney, David Bradley. At an arraignment hearing Thursday, Bradley said the 55-year-old now-former dean shot a 17-year-old student he had allegedly hired to sell marijuana...

Bradley said in a news release that the two got into a dispute after leaving Harrison’s home Tuesday evening. They were walking along a street when Harrison then “produced a handgun, pointed it at the back of the victim’s head and fired,” Bradley said in a news release. The incident was captured on surveillance footage, but the police have not released it.

The student is expected to survive.
