Man Shot Up Occupied Vehicle, Hit 2 Homes, New London Police Say

NEW LONDON, CT — A man who shot at a vehicle with a person inside it was arrested Saturday, according to police.

Police responded March 15 to a report of gunfire in the area of Rosemary Street and Bolles Avenue in New London.

Police investigated and found that an occupied vehicle had been struck by gunfire multiple times. Two nearby homes were also struck by gunfire.

Investigators recovered 9mm and .40 caliber shell casings at the scene of the crime.

No one was injured in the shooting.

In April, Jamir Muller, 20, of New London, and another man were arrested when police found them with handguns.

Muller was charged with carrying a pistol without a permit and possession of a large-capacity magazine at the time. He was released on a $150,000 bond.

Investigators later matched a shell casing from the shooting to Muller's .40 caliber handgun.

Muller was arrested again Saturday and charged with first-degree criminal attempt at assault, illegal discharge of a firearm, first-degree reckless endangerment, carrying a pistol without a permit and illegal possession of a pistol in a motor vehicle.

He was arraigned Monday and held on a $750,000 court-set bond.

The investigation remains active.
