Man who fired gun jailed early Thursday

A man who police say fired a gun early Thursday in Jamestown is facing several charges.

Officers were alerted around 12:05 a.m. to reports of a person with a gun and a gunshot complaint in the area of 45 Franklin St.

An investigation found that Bless M. Grant, no age or address listed, fired a single shot “in close proximity to multiple occupied dwellings,” JPD said in a news release. Grant was located a short time later with the gun, which was discovered to have been stolen from a burglary.

Grant was transported to Jamestown City Jail without incident. He was charged with first-degree reckless endangerment, second-degree criminal possession of a weapon and fourth-degree criminal possession of stolen property.

Trio charged after stop on interstate

SHERMAN — A traffic stop earlier this week on Interstate 86 in the town of Sherman resulted in a host of charges for three people, including a Pennsylvania woman wanted out of Erie County.

New York state troopers stopped a vehicle Monday for a seat belt violation. Troopers reported observing drug paraphernalia inside the vehicle “in plain view.”

A search turned up “two bags of methamphetamine, two bags of cocaine, two scales, a pipe containing methamphetamine residue, a syringe containing methamphetamine, three pipes containing cocaine residue and Buprenorphine film,” the state police said in a news release.

A passenger in the vehicle, identified as 31-year-old Nicole Fox of Erie, Pa., provided troopers with a false name at first. She was eventually found to be wanted out of Erie County in Pennsylvania for driving under the influence and firearm not to be carried without a license. She was additionally charged with two counts of seventh-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, second-degree criminally using drug paraphernalia and false personation.

The driver, 27-year-old Erie resident McKennzie McIntosh, was charged with second-degree criminally using drug paraphernalia, and he and 48-year-old Timothy Dominick, 48 of Lakewood, were each charged with three counts of seventh-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance.

McIntosh and Dominick are scheduled to appear in Sherman Town Court later. Fox was transported to Chautauqua County Jail and held pending extradition.
