BOCA RATON, FL -- A 16-year-old accused of firing an AK-47 on a Boca Raton street is under arrest.

Police say they received a call of shots fired Monday just before 8 p.m. near the intersection of Lancaster Street and Nottingham Road.

Responding officers found several shell casings and learned a teen driving a black pickup truck was seen in the area.

Detectives say information led them to a home on Manchester Street.

A S.W.A.T team armed with a search warrant entered the home and arrested the teen.

Police say they recovered an AK-47, a bayonet, and two rifle magazines. They charged the teen with discharging a firearm, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and altering or removing a firearm serial number.

The boy's mother was also arrested. Police charged her with accessory after the fact and contributing to the delinquency of a child.
