Revere Man Held on $50,000 Bail After Allegedly Firing Shots During Parking Spot Dispute
Jeffrey Moreno, 28, of Revere, allegedly fired three shots into the air during a dispute with two people who had parked near his home on Fenno Street to attend a neighborhood holiday party. Moreno apparently wasn’t in the holiday spirit.
Just after 1 a.m., the two partygoers were getting into their car when Moreno, who “alit from his Cadillac Escalade,’’ reportedly confronted them, yelling at them in both English and Spanish to move their car, according to the Suffolk County DA.
At that point Moreno allegedly returned to his car, retrieved a gun, and fired three shots into the air. After yelling at the victims one more time, Moreno then backed into his driveway and went inside his house.
Revere Police responded to the scene and called in the North Metro SWAT to help make contact with Moreno, who eventually came out and was taken into custody. Among other charges, Moreno faces four counts of assault with a dangerous weapon, two counts of making threats to commit a crime, and unlawful possession of a firearm.
At his arraignment Friday at Chelsea District Court, Judge Matthew Machera ordered him held on $50,000 bail and ordered him to stay away from the the victims and witnesses to the incident and surrender his guns and ammunition if he’s released on bail.
Moreno is due back in court Dec. 22.
