The City is yet again victimized by generational crime.
Nice work of Bernard Mickens for firearm charges in Mary Shepard Place.
His dad, Mallory Bernard Mickens, must have not wanted his son to be lonely in the slammer because he was arrested today for narcotics charges on Albany Avenue carrying out the family business that he has been engaged in since the age of 15 when most kids were going into 9th grade.
For now the city is a little safer because both of these individuals are off the street at least until their next court date.
One of many examples of the normalcy of crime that affects Hartford and every other city in the country.
but Chris, in all seriousness, how do we break this cycle, maybe a young man growing up with a father to tech him right from wrong would turn out much differently and be a productive member of our society instead of taking up jail space with his father. When does the pendulum start swinging back the other way

On May 17, 2018, patrol officers were dispatched to
726 Windsor Street in response to a ShotSpotter activation of nine
gunshots. Upon arrival, officers located nine .40 caliber cartridge
casings. There were no apparent witnesses, however the building was
equipped with private surveillance cameras that could not be viewed
on scene.
Detectives were assigned the investigation,
secured a search warrant for the video equipment and were able to
view the footage. The suspect is observed firing several rounds
into the air at 726 Windsor Street, in the area where the
cartridge casings were recovered. Further investigation
determined the shooter to be Bernard Mickens.
Upon being granted an arrest warrant, members
of VCU were able to ascertain Mickens' location and the vehicle he
was traveling in. In conjunction with C4 analysts, Mickens'
vehicle was located and a motor vehicle stop was conducted.
Mickens was taken into custody without incident.
Bernard Mickens, 9/10/87, 401 Mary
Shepard Place, Hartford, CT
Charges: Carrying a Pistol without a
Permit, Reckless Endangerment 1st, and Unlawful Discharge of a
