B&E suspect threatens homeowner with replica gun
HYANNIS - Barnstable Police report that on Friday at approximately 10:30 a.m., a 45-year-old female resident of Cedar Street in Hyannis returned home from work.  Upon entering the residence she encountered an unknown male inside her upstairs bathroom.  The subject had broken into her residence.  The home owner confronted him about what he was doing in her house.  At this point he reportedly brandished a handgun and said “I’m robbing you”.  The adult female victim was able to keep her composure and exited the residence.  The subject fled the residence and ran towards Main Street, Hyannis.  Numerous Barnstable Police Department Patrol Units responded to the area and set up a perimeter.  BPD Patrol Officer Mark McWilliams and Detective Jason Laber located the subject in the area of 156 Main Street, Hyannis.  He was identified as Kimarley Salmon, 17, of Hyannis.  Salmon is known to the Barnstable Police Department.  The victim was able to identify Salmon as the person that broke into her residence and brandished a handgun.  Salmon was placed under arrest and transported back to the Barnstable Police Station.  At the time of his arrest Salmon was not armed.

A follow up investigation by Detective Jason Laber and Detective Joseph Cairns resulted in the recovery of a plastic replica handgun in the area of 156 Main Street in Hyannis.  Salmon acknowledged to police investigators that he had the replica handgun in his possession during the house break.  Additional follow up also linked Salmon to another Hyannis house break on December 12th at 88 Yarmouth Road.  Salmon is alleged to have broken into the residence and stealing an iPad mini.  BPD Detectives have forensic evidence linking Salmon to the house break.  As a result, Salmon was charged with breaking and entering in the daytime placing a person in fear, and armed assault in a dwelling. In addition for the December 12th incident he was charged with breaking and entering in the daytime with intent to commit a felony and larceny over $250

Salmon is also currently under the Department of Youth Services (DYS) supervision.  This arrest resulted in DYS placing a detainer on him.  He is currently being held without bail pending his arraignment Monday in Barnstable District Court.
