BRIDGEPORT — A city resident, found later to be a felon, was found in a vehicle with a gun and several drugs and drug paraphernalia during a recent traffic stop on the highway.
State police said 24-year-old Rayqon D. Davis, of Bridgeport, was charged with various drug and weapon offenses.
Members of Troop G, based in Bridgeport, were doing motor vehicle enforcement near Exit 19 of Interstate 95 north on Monday in Fairfield when they saw a silver Honda Accord in the center lane without a registration plate on the back of the vehicle.
State police said troopers pulled the driver over and identified all the occupants inside the vehicle and did a search of the vehicle.
During the vehicle search, trooper found one .22-caliber revolver, one magazine with 10 .22-caliber rounds, 2.205 ounces of marijuana, five MDMA (ecstasy) pills, a digital scale and several cellphones “used for the distribution of narcotics for street level sales,” state police said.
Davis, who was found to be a felon, was taken into custody and brought to Troop G for processing.
State police said Davis was unable to post bond, which court records show was set at $150,000.
Court records showed Davis’ charges are criminal possession of a firearm, illegal possession of a weapon in a motor vehicle, carrying a pistol without a permit, possession of a controlled substance, sale of a narcotic substances, possession with intent to sell a hallucinogenic substances, use of drug paraphernalia and illegal possession of unstamped drugs.
Davis is expected in court at 10 a.m. on June 27.
