10:32 p.m. – Police responded to Long Street to assist EGFD, who said the first floor tenant had a key to the fire alarm box and had been shutting off the alarm every time it sounded.

A member of the fire department took the key and told the tenant that he wasn’t allowed to tamper with the fire alarm system.

9:30 p.m. – Police arrested an Pawtucket man, 23, and an East Greenwich woman, 19, for shooting a BB gun at a moving vehicle, a felony, and for vandalism after one of them shot the back window out of a car they had been following from Cumberland Farms on Post Road to Frenchtown Road to South County Trail to Middle Road to Moosehorn Road. It was during that last stretch that the man allegedly fired the BB gun at the car they were following, shattering that car’s back window. Police stopped the couple as they were driving east on Division Street near the EG Golf Course. Four police officers responded to the car stop. The EG woman was taken out of the car, handcuffed and placed in the back of one of the police cars, according to the report. The man at first refused to get out of the car. After he did, he began to walk toward one of the officers, refusing police commands and yelling, “This is bull****!” He reached toward his waistband and told police to shoot him – “I don’t care!” Police were able to see the man did not appear to be carrying a weapon so they moved in and placed him in handcuffs. He told police they were following the other car because one of the occupants had taken $100 from him a few weeks earlier. He said they had argued at the gas station and he and the woman decided to follow the other car after it pulled away. The Pawtucket man said he’d been the one to fire the BB gun. The two suspects were taken to EGPD for processing. A West Warwick policewoman was called to search the female.
