A weekend incident on Allen Place had multiple police officers responding after a concerned citizen spotted something that looked seriously sketchy.

Early Saturday morning around 12:30 a.m., someone called London Police Service after witnessing a man walking into a residence while carrying what appeared to be a firearm. The scene unfolded on June 14th, turning a quiet residential street into the centre of police attention.

When officers arrived at the Allen Place location, they managed to arrest the suspect without any drama or injuries. The situation was handled smoothly, with no one getting hurt during the arrest process.

Here’s where things get interesting though – the “firearm” that sparked this whole situation turned out to be a replica handgun. Police seized the fake weapon as part of their investigation.

The arrested individual, identified as Dion George, a 20-year-old London resident, now faces multiple charges that go beyond just the weapon possession.

George has been charged with possession of a weapon, which makes sense given the circumstances. But the charges don’t stop there – he’s also facing charges for failing to comply with a release order and breach of probation, suggesting this isn’t his first run-in with the law.

The 20-year-old remains in custody and is scheduled to appear in London court today, June 17th, to face these charges. The timing means he’s been held since his weekend arrest.

London Police are still looking for anyone who might have additional information about what went down on Allen Place. They’re asking people to call the main line at 519-661-5670 or reach out to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 if they saw anything or know more details about the incident.

For those who prefer staying anonymous, information can also be submitted online through London Middlesex Crime Stoppers, giving witnesses a way to help without revealing their identity.
