BREWER, Maine — An Eastbrook hunter with a felony burglary conviction
on his criminal record was charged early Wednesday with being a felon in
possession of a firearm after Brewer police Officer Jeff Gotreau stopped
him for having no inspection sticker on his vehicle.
Terrance Davis, 49, was dressed in hunter orange when he was stopped
around 7:10 a.m. for having no inspection sticker on his vehicle, Brewer
police Lt. Chris Martin said Thursday.
“He was in possession of a shotgun” and told Gotreau that he was in
the area hunting for deer, the lieutenant said.
“He claimed he didn’t realize that he was a felon,” Martin said.
Davis, who also was searched, was charged with possession of a
firearm by a felon, possession of marijuana and possession of scheduled
drugs for a diverted prescription pill found on him, the lieutenant
said.
