A Person Parking in Front of Your Driveway is One Thing … But Pulling Out a Firearm to Dispute the Issue is Another
No Need for a Gun
At about 3:31pm, on Wednesday, January 25, 2012, officers from Area C-11 (Dorchester) responded to a call for a person with a gun in the area of 136 Greenwood Street in Dorchester. While en route to the call, officers learned that the suspect (described as a bald, black male in his fifties, wearing a green shirt and black vest) had threatened the victim with a rifle as the result of a parking dispute. On arrival, officers spoke to the victim who stated that he parked his car in front of the driveway at 136 Greenwood Street so that he could pick his son up from school. According to the victim, as he was waiting, the suspect began yelling at him from a third floor window. In short time, the victim says the suspect, with a rifle in his possession, appeared on the front porch and yelled, “Park there tomorrow and you’ll see what’s up.”
At this point, the victim says he immediately called police.
On arrival, officers approached the location and observed an individual who matched the description of the suspect. Officers promptly secured the suspect and asked if had been involved in an earlier altercation involving a firearm. To which, the suspect stated, “I had an argument with a dude about parking in front of my driveway. I am tired of that (expletive).”
A search of the home enabled officers to see and seize a rifle scope.
Officers arrested Henry Perry, 59, of Boston and charged him with the Unlawful Possession of a Firearm and Carrying a Loaded Firearm on a Public Way.
