Situation involving armed man having mental crisis ends peacefully in Fall River
A situation was resolved Thursday night in Fall River and the result could have been much different.
According to Det. Sergeant Moses Pereira, at just before 11:15 p.m., units were called to a residence on Carlisa Drive regarding a 35-year-old male in crisis. The reporting party indicated that the male was in possession of a firearm.
Upon arrival, units observed the man inside the residence through a window. Sgt. Brian Cabral established contact with him and was able to de-escalate the situation and obtain his cooperation.
The man was transported to Charlton Memorial Hospital for an evaluation.
