Cops: “Savior Of Death” Yale Doc Had Arsenal
http://www.newhavenindependent.org/archives/2009/09/cops_savior_of.php

A Yale School of Medicine psychiatry resident appears in court Thursday after he allegedly threatened to shoot up a State Street bar — and after cops confiscated an “arsenal” of assault weapons and ammunition from his Mechanic Street home.

The cops arrested Robert Remington, 31, on weapons and breach of peace charges after getting a call from a bartender at Dolci Piano Lounge on State Street just after 10:12 p.m. Sunday night. snip

Among the items listed as found in his home:

• Mossberg 590 12 gauge shotgun with 13 rounds
• Armalite 762mm AR-10
• Barrett M95 50 cal
• Benelli M3 Super 90 12 gauge shotgun
• Springfield Armory M1A
• Sako TRG-42
• Stag 15 5.56 mm
• Stage 15 22 cal
• Electro Shield Stun Gun
• Case of 12 Gauge Remington game loads
• Case of 12 Guage Remington gun clug target loads
• Flambeau ammo box with TTI Armry special munitions, 14 boxes of 10 rounds per box
• Hodgdon bottles of rifle poweder
• 3 magazines containing 40 cal rounds
• Lots of containers of other shotgun shells, 40 cal Smith and Wesson rounds, Hornady 223 ammo, 308 Hornday 308 rounds, 50 cal projectiles.

The city animal shelter’s Tammy Hewston also showed up to temporarily remove Remington’s German Shepherd (described by an upstairs neighbor in the police report as “unfriendly”). snip

Remington listed his profession as a “Yale School of Medicine/ Physician” on his contribution form when he gave $1,000 to libertarian Ron Paul’s presidential campaign in 2007.

3. They're confiscating weapons!
This is it, Freeperati! The moment you've dreaded/anticipated. Poor Mr. Remington hadn't done nuthin' and the cops broke into his house and took his personal guns away for no good reason.

5. .40 ammo, but no .40 handgun.

Whether one has guns or not, one goes to jail if you make threats.

12. A reporter probably looked up his public records.
Political affiliation and profession are not required information to purchase a firearm in any state that I am aware of, except possibly NJ (the profession part).

11. A nice collection...but they missed the pistol.
And I didn't know Stag (not "Stage") made a .22LR. Must have been a .22LR upper on a Stag lower.
