Man facing firearms charges
On July 17, 2018, Madison County Sheriff’s Office Investigators arrested Nicholas T. Remonda, 21, and charged him with third-degree criminal sale of a firearm and third-degree criminal possession of a weapon (both class D felonies), and fourth-degree criminal possession of stolen property.
It is alleged that Remonda sold a .45 Smith and Wesson handgun to an undercover sheriff’s investigator for $700. The gun had been stolen from a residence in Madison County and then defaced for the purpose of concealment.
Remonda was arraigned in Sullivan Town Court and remanded to the Madison County Jail in lieu of $5,000 cash bail or $10,000 bond. Remonda is scheduled to appear in Madison Town Court at 1 p.m. July 23, 2018, to answer the charges.
