Two men threatened with shotgun

GREAT BAY – Police have arrested and detained M.A.M.F Tuesday for threatening R.B and A.B. with a shot gun. The arrest was made hours after the duo filed a complaint with the Detective Department about the incident which had taken place at 10:00 a.m. on Monday November 28 at Turtle Pier on the Airport Boulevard.

R.B and A.B. told police they had attempted to collect money from M.A.M.F for work they’d done for him. The discussion devolved into an argument and M.A.M.F attacked R.B. with a piece of wood. He also used that piece of wood to destroy the windshield of R.B’s car. R.B responded by using a piece of pipe to defend himself. A.B, who’d been sitting in the car, chose then to get involved only to have M.A.M.F’s son confront him with a shot gun. M.A.M.F grabbed the gun away from his son who fled the scene.

The police have confiscated the gun and they are questioning M.A.M.F as part of their ongoing investigation.
