NORWICH – On Wednesday night, the day New York State implemented its criminal justice reforms, three people were stopped in the City of Norwich after allegedly shooting pedestrians with a BB gun with felony levels of methamphetamine and cocaine in their vehicle.

Police said they were unable to release the names of the suspects because they were not charged with any crimes at that time.

The individuals were released while law enforcement awaits test results from the New York State Lab to comply with the state’s new discovery law.

Norwich Police Department Detective Sergeant Reuben Roach said Wednesday night at approximately 10 p.m. the Norwich Police Department received a telephone call from a person stating that there was a vehicle driving around the City of Norwich firing a BB gun at people on the street.

Roach said Norwich police officers were able to make a traffic stop on the vehicle. He said during the stop police discovered enough meth and cocaine, that was packaged for sale, to warrant multiple felonies.
