Irvin Parks

Police were doing a traffic enforcement patrol along Becker Road when they stopped Irvin V. Parks at about 9 a.m. on Wednesday for driving with windows possibly tinted too dark, Officer Gerry Harrington said.

Parks had his 5- and 9-year-old children in the car when he was pulled over, Harrington said.

Police found about seven grams of marijuana hidden inside Parks’s pants, and another eight to nine grams in the trunk, where officers also found a loaded AK-47-style rifle, they said.

AK-47s are typically “the most powerful rifle you’ll see on the streets outside the military,” Harrington said. (more…)

Deshawn Norwood

Deshawn M. Norwood, 21, was arrested by Sewall’s Point police after the red 1998 Chevy he was riding in was pulled over shortly before 3 a.m. on Sunday.

Police had stopped the four-door car because one of its headlights was out, Sewall’s Point police Chief Eric Cerniglia said. After police noticed that Norwood, who was sitting in the back seat, was making furtive movements, they asked him and the two others in the car to get out, Cerniglia said. In the back, police noticed a loaded AK-47 type assault rifle where Norwood had been, Cerniglia said.
