87 Illegal Weapons and More Than 2,800 Rounds of Ammunition Recovered from Defendant's Storage Locker Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus R. Vance, Jr., today announced the indictment and arraignment of JONATHAN SHAW, 57, for illegally owning, storing, and attempting to transport dozens of weapons, including multiple loaded firearms, and large quantities of ammunition. The defendant was charged in an 89-count indictment with Criminal Possession of a Weapon in the Second Degree and Criminal Possession of a Weapon in the Fourth Degree,[1] among other charges. “The events of this past weekend remind us that gun violence continues to plague our nation.
