RPD: Loaded rifle and cannabis found inside apartment after report of gunfire
ROCHESTER, N.Y. — Rochester Police say a report of shots fired inside an apartment led them to recover a loaded AR15 rifle and 34 pounds of cannabis.
News10NBC saw multiple police cruisers respond to the apartment building on Monroe Avenue near Dartmouth Street around 6 a.m. on Thursday. The officers learned that no one was hit by the gunfire.
RPD says that, after searching the apartment on a warrant, they found the rifle, the cannabis, over $50,000 in cash, and two magazines. Officers identified the apartment resident as Todd Romig, 27, and arrested him. He’s charged with criminal possession of a weapon and criminal possession of cannabis and was taken to the Monroe County Jail.
Romig was sent to jail on bail due to an open felony drug case against him outside of New York City.
Roming is due to be arraigned in Rochester City Court on Friday.
