Grand Jury returns 127 indictments against 45 people
A Franklin man faces seven felony indictments stemming from a May 27, 2022 shooting at the QVC Distribution Center that sent one person to the hospital with gunshot wounds.
The Suffolk Circuit Court Grand Jury returned seven indictments against Alvin Edward Sears Jr. of Franklin on charges of aggravated malicious wounding, firearm possession with a protective order, nonviolent felon in possession of a gun, shooting in a public place, malicious shooting into an occupied vehicle, use of a firearm in a felony and violating a protective order.
Police arrested and charged Sears for shooting Jason Ferebee, 36, at 2:56 a.m. on May 27 while he was sitting in his car. At that time, police said the suspect and victim were “known to each other,” and the release referred to the incident as a “domestic related shooting.”
