STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — Authorities arrested two men and a woman in a raid where drugs and guns allegedly were found inside their apartment at the Richmond Terrace Houses.
The raid occurred on Sept. 18 at about 6 a.m. after officers armed with search warrants swarmed the apartment at 456 Richmond Terrace, according to a criminal complaint based on investigations by Narcotics Borough Staten Island.
When police arrived, Carlos Feliciano, 44, was in the rear bedroom and a woman, Takeena Williams, 55, was in the front bedroom. Daquon Williams, 38, also was arrested in connection with that raid, according to the criminal complaint and police.
The criminal complaint alleges that officers recovered a Jiminez 9mm pistol in the front bedroom. The gun was loaded with five bullets in an attached magazine.
In a rear bedroom, officers allegedly found eight plastic- zipper bags containing cocaine powder and cash.
Later that morning, Daquon Williams spoke with police at the 120th Precinct.
“I reside there,” the criminal complaint quoted the 38-year-old defendant as saying. “I do not have a pistol permit.”
None of the defendants have a license to carry or possess a firearm in New York City or the state, and the defendants are not dealers in rifles or shotguns, according to the criminal complaint.
The defendants have been charged with criminal possession of a controlled substance with intent to sell, criminal possession of a weapon, criminal possession of a firearm and criminal possession of a controlled substance, according to the criminal complaint.
Feliciano was convicted of attempted criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree in Supreme Court in Manhattan in December 2008. He was sentenced in January 2009 to five years in jail, according to the criminal complaint.
Feliciano is scheduled to be arraigned in state Supreme Court in St. George on Oct. 14. A defense attorney is not listed in public records.
Takeena Williams has pleaded not guilty to all charges, has been released with non-monetary conditions and is due back in state Criminal Court in St. George on Nov. 25, according to public records. An attorney did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Information about the case against Daquon Williams is not currently available in public records, but he is being prosecuted.
