Feliciano & DeCrescenzo
Make Another Gun Grab

When cops showed up to a report of a gun-waving man Wednesday, they found the man, some weed, and then the gun he’d stashed in a dresser drawer nearby.

Officers Jermey Cordero, Louis DeCrescenzo, and Martin Feliciano tracked down the pistol and arrested the man.

It was the latest arrest in a busy week and a half for DeCrescenzo and Feliciano, the fourth in nine days involving a serial offender with a gun and/or drugs. Read about their recent exploits here, here, and here.

Here’s what happened Wednesday, according to police spokesman Officer Dave Hartman:

At 6 p.m., Cordero, DeCrescenzo, and Feliciano responded to Limerick Street in Fair Haven on a report phoned in by a woman who said a man named Gee” had pointed a gun at her.

The cops detained two men in a nearby car, one of whom matched the suspect’s description. Police didn’t find a gun in the car, but they did find three bags of marijuana on the 33-year-old driver of the car. The other man in the car, a 34-year-old, was ID’d as the suspected gunman, Gee.

The woman who had called told cops that Gee had been calling her husband names. When she defended her husband, Gee allegedly pointed a gun at her and threatened to shoot her. He made the threat three times, including once as she was trying to leave the area with her kids.

The woman pointed cops to a house she said Gee had gone into. The cops checked an apartment nearby on Grafton Street and spoke with a 19-year-old who said he’d been asleep when G” came in and asked him to hide a gun. He said he put the gun in a dresser drawer, where cops found a silver pistol.

Gee, who’s a convicted felon, was arrested on charges of carrying a pistol without a permit, criminal possession of a pistol, carrying a dangerous weapon, risk of injury to a minor, reckless endangerment, threatening and several counts of Interfering with officers.

The other man was arrested and charged with possession of less than half and ounce of marijuana.
