The unnamed male suspect will be issued a summons to appear in court at a later date and will be charged by Plympton Police with Threats to Commit a Crime To Wit Murder. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, a criminal complaint has not yet been filed by the court, so the identity of the this suspect is being withheld at this time.

Additionally, ADAM LOURENCO, AGE 32, OF TAUNTON was also charged by Carver Police with:

  • Carrying a Firearm Without a License  
  • Possession of Ammunition Without an FID Card 
  • Possession of a Large Capacity Firearm 
  • Possession of a Class B Substance (Oxycodone) 
  • Possession of a Class B Substance (Xanax) 

NICHOLAS BELLEFEUILLE, AGE 31, OF MIDDLEBOROUGH was also charged by Carver Police with: 

  • Carrying a Firearm Without a License 
  • Possession of Ammunition Without an FID Card 
  • Carrying a Dangerous Weapon (Brass Knuckles) 
  • Possession of Class B Substance (Oxycodone) 
  • Possession of Class B Substance (Xanax)

LOURENCO and BELLEFEUILLE were arraigned in Wareham District Court on Monday, Feb. 22, and were released on $1,000 bail.

At approximately 3:30 p.m. on Sunday Feb. 21, Plympton Police officers responded to the Tractor Supply Company, located at 406 Main St. in Plympton, after receiving a report of multiple customers who were behaving oddly and allegedly causing a disturbance inside the store.

Upon arrival, officers learned that the three men involved had left the store and were heading south into Carver. One of the men was reportedly armed with a large knife. Officers were given a description of the vehicle and suspects and the description was put out over the radio to neighboring police departments.

A short time later, Carver Police located a truck matching the description given traveling south on Main Street (Route 58) with three males inside. A traffic stop of the vehicle was conducted in the area of 32 Main St. and Plympton Police responded to assist.

Through the roadside investigation officers determined that the three occupants of the truck had been at Tractor Supply Company a short time prior to being stopped by police. One of the men was armed with a large knife and the other two were armed with handguns. None of the suspects had a license to carry a firearm.

As a result of this investigation, BELLEFEUILLE  and LOURENCO were placed under arrest by Carver Police and the third man was issues a summons to appear in court.

“This was great police work and cooperation by both departments to quickly locate and arrest these men and get two illegally possessed guns off the streets,” Chief Clancy said. “I want to thank the Carver Police for their assistance in the investigation and prompt response to the incident.”

Carver Police Chief Marc Duphily said, “This incident was able to resolved thanks to inter-agency support and the strong relationship we have with the Plympton Police Department. I want to commend our officers who were able to locate this truck and conducted the traffic stop leading to the arrests and seizure of weapons.”

These are allegations. All suspects are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
