Norwalk Man Accused of Waving Gun to Get in Last Word

A city man was arrested Tuesday for allegedly brandishing a handgun Saturday evening during a house party at 56 Suncrest Rd.

Kimani Williams, 19, of 31 Clay St., was charged by warrant with criminal possession of a firearm, first-degree reckless endangerment, risk of injury to a minor and second-degree breach of peace.

Police said Williams showed up uninvited at the party and got into a argument with a woman with whom he has had an ongoing dispute.

After he allegedly threw a drink in her face, others at the party attempted to separate them, which is when Williams is said to have pulled out the gun and waved it around.

Police said Williams put the gun in his pocket while continuing to argue with the women. He eventually left and police were notified of the incident.

On Tuesday, at about 2 p.m., Williams was seen walking on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Drive by a sergeant working an extra-duty assignment. He radioed another officer who was also working an extra-duty job down the street. The two officers followed Williams to Madison Street, where he was arrested without incident. 

Williams was held on $100,000 bond and assigned a court date of Sept. 21.
