The Springfield police crackdown on illegal firearms on city streets continues.

 

Officers conducted extra patrols Tuesday night in the 17-hundred block of East Brown Street in response to recent shots fired calls in that area. While on patrol, officers observed 30-year-old Deonte Williams standing on the sidewalk.

 

Because they were aware of outstanding warrants against him, officers approached Williams, who tried to take off on foot. He was quickly grabbed, and police recovered a loaded semi-automatic pistol. Williams is facing multiple new charges, in addition to the outstanding warrants.
