Fall River Police responded to a shots fired call, it resulted in an arrest on drug and breaking and entering charges
They say no call is routine and that certainly was the case late last night in Fall River.
According to police, at approximately 11:30 p.m. last night, officers responded to the area of Kilburn Street and Dwelly Street for a report of shots fired.
During his canvass of the area, Officer Zachary Oliveira observed a backpack on the ground. Shortly thereafter, he encountered a male looking through the back seat of a vehicle.
Through his investigation, Officer Oliveira discovered that the man had broken into the vehicle, and was in the process of taking several items which were located in his pockets.
40-year-old Jacob Souza of Fall River was arrested and charged with Breaking & Entering in a Motor Vehicle in the Nighttime for a Felony, Possession of a Class B Drug, Possession of a Class E Drug, and Receiving Stolen Property.
It was later determined that a vehicle had backfired in the area causing the loud bang, often mistaken for gun shots.
