PUTNAM — A Putnam man was arrested following a report of gunfire at a home.
Jeremy W. Nason, 40, 54 Edmund St. was charged with: criminal use of a firearm, criminal possession of a firearm, first-degree reckless endangerment, unlawful discharge of a firearm.
Putnam Police Department Chief Christopher D. Ferace said shortly after midnight Oct. 18, dispatch received a 911 call reporting an individual inside the residence of 54 Edmund St. was armed with a firearm.
When police arrived, gun shots were heard coming from within the home.
Assistance from troopers from CT State Police, Troop D was requested. House occupants advised via phone that no one was injured and all occupants had left the building and all occupants exited the residence, including the accused, without incident.
Ferace said the accused, a convicted felon, was illegally in possession of a handgun and responsible for firing off rounds inside the home. No additional details are available, and no additional arrests are expected.
