Additional Charges Filed In Shooting Incident In Enfield

ENFIELD, CT — A convicted felon arrested earlier this month following a shooting incident with a family member in May is facing additional charges in connection with the case.

Bruce Michaud, 32, was charged Wednesday on a warrant with second-degree assault with a firearm, first-degree reckless endangerment, criminal possession of a pistol/revolver, tampering with physical evidence, illegal discharge of a firearm and second-degree breach of peace and sale of a narcotic substance.

He was released after posting a court-set $150,000 bond, and is scheduled to appear in Enfield Superior Court July 9.

Michaud was arrested in connection with a shooting which occurred May 15 on Asnuntuck Street, when he is alleged to have fired at least one round at a person. Subsequent investigation led to the issuance of a court-authorized search and seizure warrant, in which a firearm and ammunition consistent with the May shooting were recovered, Deputy Chief Fred Hall said.

Upon execution of the arrest warrant, Michaud was found to be in possession of substances consistent with, and believed to be crack cocaine, fentanyl and suboxone. Quantities and packaging of some of these substances was consistent with possession with intent to sell, Hall said.

He had originally been charged with criminal possession of a firearm, failure to store a loaded firearm re: minor, first-degree threatening, risk of injury to a child, possession of a controlled substance and second-degree breach of peace.
