A Gentle Reminder from the Farmington PD: Freedom Isn’t Free, Especially When You Threaten Someone with a Gun While on Drugs

It was a busy weekend in bucolic Farmington, CT, where from August 1 to August 4, six individuals were arrested for a range of offenses, from shoplifting and DUI to waving a gun around in a manner described by Connecticut General Statutes as “ill-advised.” All individuals listed below are presumed innocent until proven guilty.
