A Brighton woman was charged in connection with a stabbing at a Brighton music hall last year, in which her brother was previously charged in connection with, Suffolk County District Attorney Kevin Hayden’s office said.
Chandra Dixon, 38, was charged with assault and battery, and assault and battery with a dangerous weapon (shod foot), Hayden’s office said in a statement.
While a judge released Dixon on personal recognizance, she is scheduled to return to court for a pre-trial hearing on June 26.
“This was a thorough investigation that didn’t stop when one person was identified and charged,” Hayden said in the statement. “Everyone involved in this case worked diligently to identify and charge this second person for an extremely violent event that left the victim seriously injured.”
On Dec. 1, 2024, Boston police learned of a stabbing at the Roadrunner at 89 Guest St., Hayden’s office said. A 27-year-old man was stabbed five times in the back. The man’s condition since the stabbing is unclear.
Witnesses saw Dixon in a verbal altercation after she cut the line inside the music hall, Hayden’s office said. That argument, seen on surveillance video, escalated into a physical confrontation between two groups. Dixon was seen in the video running toward the group.
One person was punched and another person was kicked in the right shoulder after the fight, Hayden’s office said. But neither of the two saw who struck them, but investigators identified Dixon as the person who struck them.
Dixon’s brother, Collin Hullum, was arrested in connection with the stabbing, Hayden’s office said. He was charged with assault to kill and assault and battery causing serious bodily injury. Hullum is expected to appear again in court on June 18 for a probable cause hearing.
