Man is arrested after attacking police

A Dorchester man is facing charges following an incident Saturday morning.

Boston police say they were called to 238 Warren Street in Roxbury just after 4:30 a.m. for a report of a person with a knife. Additional information has been provided, including a description of a suspect who allegedly stole a moped.

When they arrived, they were met by a victim who told them about his stolen moped and that he could track it to the address. When he went to pick it up, the suspect said; identified as Michael Williams, 38, of Dorchester, allegedly threatened him with a knife.

After a brief search of the area, the suspect was found sleeping in a box truck. When officers ordered Williams to exit the truck, he pushed and struggled with one of the officers.

Williams was eventually arrested and a knife was found in his right pants pocket.

He is charged with two counts of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, receiving stolen property over $1,200 and intimidation of a witness.

Police also discovered that there were three active arrest warrants out for the suspect.

He is expected to be arraigned at Dorchester District Court on Monday.
