PAWTUCKET, R.I. � Three people were arrested and two guns were confiscated after an altercation on West Avenue.

Maj. Arthur Martins said the incident began just after 8 p.m. Friday when two people in a vehicle drove into the driveway of their apartment at 400 West Ave. and found their path blocked by one of the third floor tenants. That sparked an argument.

At that point, one of the third floor tenants, Gabriel Concepcion, 24, reportedly went to his apartment and retrieved a gun, Martins said.

Not to be outdone, one of the occupants of the car, Lanice Perry, 24, went to her apartment and got a gun of her own.�While Perry was still in her apartment, police say Concepcion reportedly fired his gun into the ground.

Perry came out and pointed her gun at one of the women at the scene. She did not fire, Martins said.

Police were called at 8:15 p.m. and arrived to find a large group involved in a disturbance. Both weapons were seized.

Perry was charged with felony assault, carrying a weapon while under the influence of liquor, disorderly conduct and resisting arrest.

Concepcion was charged with firing a weapon in a compact area and disorderly conduct.

The other person who was with Perry in the car as they arrived home, Samuel Santos, 31, of 33 Terrace Ave., Providence, was charged with disorderly conduct, simple assault and resisting arrest.
