STAMFORD, Conn. — A 21-year-old Stamford man was charged with putting a BB handgun to a friend’s head during a dispute early Saturday before fleeing the scene, police said.

German Galicia-Segura, of 25 Coolidge Ave., was charged with carrying and brandishing a facsimile firearm, third-degree assault, second-degree breach of peace and second-degree threatening. 

A 24-year-old man had gone to his aunt’s home on Plymouth Road at about 7 p.m. Friday to drink beer with her, police said. At about 10 p.m., Galicia-Segura joined them, police said.

But at about 7 a.m. Saturday, the two men got into an argument, police said. Galicia-Segura punched the 24-year-old in the nose, and the victim felt something hard against the left side of his head, police said. He noticed that it was a gun, grabbed it and pushed it from his head, police said. 

During the struggle, the gun fell to the floor and Galicia-Segura fled, police said. 

He was arrested soon afterward by police and taken into custody and charged.

There was no information available on his arrest, bond or court date.
