A 20-year-old Dorchester man was ordered held on $10,000 bail last week after he was arrested in Fields Corner on Dec. 20 with a gun loaded with 14 bullets. Police say officers responded to a call about a person with a gun in the area of 10 Parkman St. around 10:55 p.m. that Friday night. According to the BPD account, officers located two individuals walking from the area. As they approached them, the pair quickly began walking in the opposite directions but they were stopped and the officers conducted a pat frisk. Officers then followed footprints in the fresh snow from one of the men that led to bushes between two residences, where they found a discarded firearm. They then placed the suspect, Dionte Wall, in handcuffs. The firearm was later determined to be a Rockland USA with one round in the chamber and thirteen rounds in the magazine.

On Dec. 23, Wall was later charged with several firearms violations and Dorchester Municipal Court Judge Thomas Kaplanes set bail at $10,000, then ordered Wall held at the Suffolk County jail because he could not come up with the money, court records show. The suspect’s next court hearing is scheduled for Jan. 15.
