ANSONIA — A Waterbury man was arrested on November 12 in connection to a shooting investigation that occurred in Ansonia on August 31.
Edward Rumley, 32, was taken into custody on an arrest warrant for his alleged involvement in the incident where shots were fired.
He faces charges including Criminal Attempt at Assault First Degree, Reckless Endangerment First Degree, Unlawful Discharge, Criminal Possession of Firearm, and Carrying a Pistol without a Permit.
Rumley was held on a $250,000 bond and arraigned in court on November 13.
He is now in the custody of the Department of Corrections and is set to appear in court again on November 21.
According to authorities, at least one more arrest is expected, as another suspect is currently detained on unrelated charges and will be arrested at a later date.
