Stamford Man Arrested for Pulling Gun on Sister

officers arrested a 21-year-old man Saturday evening after pulling a gun on his sister the night before.

According to police, the incident began when officers were called to an apartment on Friday evening after Ben Mosley, 21, of 5 Jamroga Lane, Stamford, reportedly assaulted his nephew. Mosley's sister told police that while her son was in bed, Mosley was holding him down and yelling at him. When Mosley's sister tried to intervene, he punched her in the face.

Mosely's sister exited the apartment and asked the building's maintenance man to call the police. When the maintenance man approached Mosley, he pulled a black handgun on him. Mosley's sister locked Mosley out of the apartment, but her grandmother let him back in. He then pulled the gun on his sister and threatened to shoot her if she tried to call the police. She called anyway and Mosley fled before police officers arrived.

Mosely turned himself into police Saturday evening and was charged with risk of injury to a child, second-degree threatening, criminal possession of a pistol/revolver, illegally carrying a pistol without a permit, second-degree breach of peace and third-degree assault. His bond is set at $100,000 and he is due to appear in court on Monday.
