Somerville Police Respond To Dispute, Make Arrest for Loaded Firearm
On 3/28/2021 at around 10:30 AM Somerville Polices responded to an address on Medford St for a dispute call. There was information that one of the parties involved may have a weapon. While investigating the incident officers observed a motor vehicle approach them at a high rate of speed. This vehicle then crossed the double yellow lines and proceeded through a red light. Sometime later the driver of this vehicle lost control and crashed into steps and a retaining wall on Pearl St. The driver was arrested on 10 charges. A loaded Smith and Wesson .40 caliber handgun was found in a recycling bin near the incident. Its serial number had been obliterated. Great work by officers getting a loaded gun off of the streets.
