Authorities arrested a Dickinson Square West man for allegedly pulling a gun on another male.
At 6 p.m. June 8, the complainant was walking along the 400 block of Federal Street when he encountered an elderly figure who reportedly asked him for his change from the store, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. The stunned individual replied that he did not go to the store for the older adult and therefore did not have his cash.
The offender allegedly produced a silver revolver from a pouch attached to a walker and fired it one time at the victim, who quickly ran from the park. A little bit later, he spotted the supposed gun wielder after police stopped him on Ninth Street and Washington Avenue, Tolliver said. The complainant approached the officers and informed them the man had shot at him, with law enforcement officials arresting Charles Mincy, of the 400 block of Manton Street, and charging him with possession of an instrument of crime, assault, recklessly endangering another person and firearms violations. He had not posted his $350,000 bail as of press time and awaits a June 23 preliminary hearing.
