A 58-year-old Shelton man was arrested Monday after police said he pulled a gun on a man at a downtown store.
In a prepared statement, Detective Richard Bango said officers were called to the Wooster Street Market about 5 p.m. Monday for a reported dispute during which a person had allegedly brandished a gun.
A man at the store told cops that he and his ex-neighbor, Mario Williams, had been arguing “over neighborhood issues.”
“The complainant stated that Williams pulled a firearm and pointed it at him during the dispute,” Bango said. “Williams, who was still (at the) scene, had a handgun in his possession and was discovered to be under the influence.”
Williams, of Roberts Street, was charged with first-degree reckless endangerment, second-degree threatening, breach of peace, and carrying a firearm while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
He was released on a $2,500 bond and is scheduled to appear at Superior Court in Derby April 24.
