Boston Police report gang-unit officers responding to a report of a fight at 30 Linsky Barry Ct. in the West Broadway development Thursday afternoon didn't find anybody fighting but did find several guys hanging out and one "crouching behind a wall attempting to avoid contact with police."
Police say the alleged croucher, Jamarie Davis, 18, of Springfield, was within arm's reach of a red shoebox, inside of which officers found "a loaded 9 mm Glock 19 with 27 rounds of ammunition in a clear extended magazine."
Davis was arrested on charges of unlawful possession of a firearm and unlawful possession of ammunition, police say.
Innocent, etc.

Thanks, BPD.
Very glad to have this gun, and this kid off the street.
Not suggesting the BPD is perfect, but there seems to be one
of these stories involving the BPD disarming someone without having to call the medical examiner quite often. Thanks to these BPD officers this 18 year old carrying a glock with a 27 round clip is alive to make other stupid mistakes or learn from this one. Can't say that about other police departments across this country.
