Nassau Man Pulled Gun On His Friend: Police

A man from Baldwin was arrested on Saturday night after police say he pulled a gun on his acquaintance after an argument.

Police say that Alex Toussaint, 19, of Victoria Street, went to the Baldwin home of a 43-year-old man to discuss a money issue. The two went outside, where police say Toussaint pointed a gun at the man. When the man tried to call police, Toussaint went back into his house and locked the door, but came out when police arrived.

Police arrested Toussaint without incident, and the handgun was recovered. No one was injured.

Toussaint is charged with second-degree criminal possession of a weapon, first-degree criminal use of a firearm, two counts of first-degree burglary and second-degree menacing. He is scheduled to be arraigned in First District Court in Hempstead on Sunday.
