FRAMINGHAM —
Two Framingham men were arrested just after midnight Saturday when detectives found two guns in a car parked on the Southside, police said.
Christopher Cardona, 20, and Elijah P. Jacobs, 20, were arrested at 12:01 a.m. on Lindsay Street, Deputy Police Chief Craig Davis said.
Framingham detectives were helping Ashland Police investigate a shooting outside Fusion Cuisine on Pond Street in Ashland late Friday night.
Police saw a group of men on Lindsay Street, not far from the town line, standing near the car, and questioned them, Davis said.
Officers ran the license plate on the car, and it came back registered to Jacobs.
Detectives looked in the car, and saw two handguns in the front seat, a .380 Browning and a Hi-Point 9mm, Davis said.
"One of the weapons had a defaced serial number," Davis said. "One of the weapons, I'm not sure which one, was stolen out of South Carolina in May 2009."
Cardona, of 159A Grant St., and Jacobs, of 49 Summer St., were charged with possession of a firearm without a permit, possession of ammunition without a permit, defacing a firearm and receiving stolen property.
Cardona was ordered held without bail at his Framingham District Court arraignment yesterday. He was on probation for a marijuana arrest from last year, and now the probation department is seeking to have a judge find him in violation of that probation.
Jacobs was ordered held on $12,500 bail.
Both are due back in court on Aug. 25 for a pretrial conference.
