EVERETT, MA — Police arrested a man in possession of a firearm early Sunday morning.
Gabriel Goncalves, 19, of Everett, was taken into custody and charged with multiple weapons law violations.

The operator, later identified as Goncalves, appeared to be hiding something in his waistband when Palermo approached him.
Goncalves was issued an exit order and refused to comply.
With assistance from Officer Uga, Goncalves was removed from the vehicle.
During a pat frisk, officers found a handgun.
The handgun, a Glock 27, 40 caliber with a loaded magazine, was placed into evidence.
Goncalves was arraigned Monday in Malden District Court.
