Video footage was reviewed that showed two individuals in that location a the time of the 911 call.

Detectives identified one of the suspects as a person with an extensive criminal history who is currently free on bail for a felony assault with a weapon.

Police ae also investigating a felony assault that occurred Saturday morning involving the same man.

A second person identified in the video was also detained.

A search warrant was obtained and executed by the State Police.

“We want to work proactively where there is potential for violence,” he said. “It was only 18 months ago that a homicide occurred near that location, June of this year when a man was shot in the torso there, and only July when we had a stabbing nearby.
