Fall River Police arrest three on list of gun charges, one with a pending murder case

Three from Fall River were arrested on a list of firearm charges by FRPD on Friday evening.

According to police, on Friday evening, Detectives assigned to the Major Case Division with the assistance of CAST and ESU, executed a search warrant at a residence in the 500 block of Plymouth Avenue. The target of the search warrant was 18-year-old Christopher Gill. Gill already had an active arrest warrant for firearm charges stemming from a case in September of last year.

The residence belonged to 26-year-old Carson Underwood. Underwood, Gill, and 18-year-old Jaylen Lambert were all present when the warrant was executed.

Lambert is also well known to police. After being charged with the murder of Jaleale Simmons on March 15th of last year, Lambert was deemed not dangerous by the courts and released while his case remained pending.

During the search of the residence, detectives located a loaded Smith & Wesson .380 Bodyguard handgun with a defaced serial number, conveniently packed inside a bag with “Lambert” embroidered on it. Detectives also recovered a loaded Glock 43X 9mm handgun. None of the individuals present possessed a license to carry a firearm.

Detectives will continue analyzing evidence to determine whether these firearms may be connected to other open investigations.
