Mayor Martin J. Walsh and police Commissioner William B. Evans say they’re disturbed that the gun that was used to kill Florida teenager Trayvon Martin is up for auction and wish the weapon would be destroyed. In a joint statement issued yesterday, Walsh and Evans wrote: “We are deeply troubled that someone would look to profit from a tragedy that caused so much pain and turmoil across our country. In Boston, our focus is taking guns off the streets and out of the wrong hands. We believe this gun should be destroyed, so no more lives can be lost.”
