On November 10, 2023, the Norwalk Police Detective Bureau took William Hinton into custody. They had a warrant, that accused him of carrying a pistol without permission. This incident goes back to April 23, 2023, at 5:34 PM when Norwalk Police Officers went to 79 Cedar Street due to a disturbance. While looking into the situation, the officers arrested William Hinton after a short chase on foot. They charged him with interfering with an officer. Patrol officers searched the area where the foot chase happened and discovered a thrown-away 9mm Glock handgun. Detectives came to the scene to carefully handle and retrieve the handgun.

Throughout a thorough investigation, detectives talked to witnesses, used video proof, and got permission to search and take things, which led them to connect the handgun to Hinton.
