Domestic Abuser Found With a Gun…in a Classroom?!
By Beth Baumann
On Tuesday night, Stamford, CT and UConn police arrested 38-year-old Steffon McDonald for an outstanding warrant for burglary and stalking. Once McDonald was placed in handcuffs, officers found a loaded .22 pistol and a knife in his waistband. The gun was reported stolen in NC.
The scariest part of the whole thing? McDonald was in court-ordered domestic violence classes when officers took him into custody.
“It was kind of scary because the guy has problems and a loaded stolen gun in his waistband,” Sgt. Robert Shawinsky told the Stamford Advocate.
McDonald was ordered by a judge to attend domestic violence classes after an incident in June.
Because of the gun, McDonald received additional charges for criminal possession of a firearm, carrying a pistol without a permit, possession of a firearm on school grounds and stealing the gun.
Instead of a $250,000 court appearance bond, the suspect was held overnight. During his arraignment on Wednesday, the judge ordered the suspect remain in custody in lieu of a $100,000 bond, which must be made in cash and without a bondsman. He made no pleas to the charges.
Multiple women have stepped forward, claiming McDonald has stalked, harassed and burglarized them.
