The 21-year-old was charged with unauthorized possession of a firearm, possession of a weapon for dangerous purpose, possession of an opioid (other than heroin) for the purpose of trafficking, possession of methamphetamine for the purpose of trafficking, failure to comply with a probation order, and possession of the proceeds of crime under $5,000.
