Springfield, MA (WGGB/WSHM) – Springfield Police breathed a collective sigh of relief after initial reports on Monday night indicated that a man was in possession of an AK-47, only to discover it was an airsoft gun.
After receiving a report around 9 p.m. that a man had an AK-47 and a bulletproof vest on the 0-100 block of Belmont Avenue, police spoke with a victim who stated that the suspect, 36-year-old Edward Blatch Jr., had pointed a gun at her during a dispute in an apartment.
