Fall River Man Allegedly Shoots Cars Parked In Shoveled Out Spaces

FALL RIVER (CBS) – Shoveling and saving parking spaces is serious business during the winter months. But according to Fall River police, one man took the tradition to a dangerous level.

Fall River police said Jose Osorio, 29, shot two cars early Friday morning that were parked in spaces that had been shoveled out by other residents.

Officers were called to Tremont Street after residents said Osorio was going door to door trying to find the owners of cars parked in the area.

At about 1 a.m., 911 callers said Osorio shot two cars that were parked in the spaces, which he said the owners did not shovel out themselves.

Police located a .22 caliber revolver after searching Osorio's home.

Osorio was charged with carrying a firearm without a license, two counts of vandalism, discharging a firearm within 500 feet of a dwelling, carrying a firearm in public without a license, carrying a firearm after being convicted of a violent crime and possession of a firearm with a defaced serial number.

No one was injured during the incident.
