BOURNE, Mass. (AP) – A Wareham man was in critical condition at a Boston hospital after he was allegedly shot by a former Bourne firefighter.

Police said Jeffrey Harrington, 30, of the town’s Buzzards Bay section, was arrested Sunday morning and charged with shooting 36-year-old Gerald Carbone in the head during an altercation earlier that morning.

Harrington was scheduled to be arraigned Monday in Falmouth District Court on charges including assault and battery with a dangerous weapon.

According to police, Carbone and Harrington got into a fight shortly before 12:30 a.m. Sunday. Tamijka Fernandes, who was walking home from a market, spotted Carbone lying bleeding in the intersection of Cohasset and Wallace avenues.

“I was just in shock,” Fernandes told the Cape Cod Times. “There was so much blood all over him, I couldn’t tell where the wound was.”

Fernandes called police, who found the victim unconscious but breathing.

Police said they recovered the gun they believe was used in the shooting.
