At 2:07 AM this morning a Shot Spotter activation for 2 gunshots was received from the area of 62 Columbia Street. While officers responded and were searching the area for a victim and/or gunshot evidence, they heard additional gunshots, that were confirmed by another Shot Spotter activation, of 3 shots in the area of 637 Main Street. Additional officers responded to that location. During that response to the Main Street area and subsequent investigation, a suspect was located. A stop of the suspect was attempted by Patrol Officers assigned to that neighborhood as well as a member of the CPD Port Task Force. The suspect fled and was apprehended by the officers almost immediately thereafter. A firearm, marijuana and other drug evidence were recovered. An officer involved in attempting to detain the suspect was injured and had to be transported to a Boston Hospital with non-life threatening injuries. The officer has since been released. The suspect has been identified as a 23 year old male, Jean Carlos Almodovar, of 23 Graves Road, Revere. Mr. Almodovar was charged with Illegal Possession of a Firearm Without a License, Possession to Distribute a Class D Substance (marijuana), and Resisting Arrest. There were no shooting victims located at either location. Anyone with any information related to this incident is asked to call Cambridge Police at 617-349-3300. The Cambridge Police will continue to maintain an increased presence in the area as the investigation into this incident and other similar incidents, including the recovery of shell casings outside of 47 Bishop Drive on May 2 and outside 106-108 Columbia Street on April 16, are ongoing.
