Teens Accused Of Trying To Order Part For Pistol: Greenwich Police

GREENWICH, CT — Two teenagers were arrested last week after police say they tried to have a part for a Glock pistol delivered to a home in Greenwich.

The teens, age 17 and 19 at the time of the incident in December 2023, were charged with conspiracy to commit sixth-degree larceny and criminal attempt at sixth-degree larceny, both misdemeanors, according to their arrest reports.

The 19-year-old is from Stamford; police did not provide any details on the 17-year-old, who has since turned 18.

Police said a Greenwich resident noticed suspicious activity on her credit card statement last month, and an investigation found that an unknown party used the woman's credit card without permission to have a part for a Glock pistol delivered to the woman's home.

On Jan. 5, plainclothes Greenwich police officers conducted surveillance and identified two suspects who they believe conspired to retrieve the package from the woman's home, police said.

The two teens were found in possession of a cell phone used to place the fraudulent credit card purchase, which totaled $204, police said.

Both teens were able to post $1,000 bonds. They're scheduled to appear in Stamford Superior Court on Jan. 19.
