Police have arrested a Fall River teen on multiple drug and gun charges.
According to Sergeant Moses Pereira, in response to a recent spike in shooting incidents in the city, Vice, Intelligence, and Gang detectives were conducting surveillance in the South End of the city.
During this time, Detectives received information of a man who was in possession of an illegal firearm. When they observed this male walking in the area of Palmer Street, they identified themselves, which resulted in a brief foot pursuit. The suspect was ultimately apprehended.
A subsequent search led to the discovery of a black Taurus PT 99 AF Para firearm in his waistband, along with 17 bags of crack cocaine, 7 bags of fentanyl, and $665 in cash.
Lamahrion Colson, 18, was charged with multiple firearms and drug related offenses including, carrying a large capacity firearm, carrying a loaded firearm without a license to carry, possession to distribute a class A drug, and possession to distribute a class B drug. Detectives will also be seeking to charge Colson under the Armed Career Criminal statute.

Yup. These people are grandparents by the time they’re 30, so no doubt the family has been in the city for generations.
