BOSTON (AP) — Police arrested a 29-year-old Fall River man Thursday after he allegedly assaulted staff at a Boston restaurant, crashed his car into another vehicle as he drove away, and was later connected to garbage bags filled with marijuana.
Police responded to a call about a fight at the Ocean Prime Restaurant in the city’s South Boston neighborhood at about 6:20 p.m., after witnesses reported seeing Jason Wages, of Fall River, harassing female wait staff and customers.
Staff confronted Wages after he allegedly head-butted an employee and called him a racial slur multiple times, police said. Wages allegedly head-butted a second employee and allegedly threatened to shoot “everyone in the place,” as he left, police said, the Boston Globe reported.
