LAGRANGE, Maine (WGME) — Authorities have arrested Richard Stacker, 53, and Ferdinand Nazario, 56, in connection with illegal firearms possession and drug trafficking, the Penobscot County Sheriff’s Office reported.
Law enforcement executed a search warrant last week at a home on Town Road in LaGrange as part of an ongoing investigation. Officers discovered several firearms and suspected drugs during the search.
Both Stacker and Nazario, residents of New York and LaGrange, were charged with possession of a firearm by a prohibited person. The investigation is still active, and additional charges are possible.
Authorities emphasized that possession of firearms by convicted felons is a serious offense under Maine law and carries significant penalties if convicted.
