Man Charged With Stealing Nail Gun From South Windsor Employer

SOUTH WINDSOR, CT - Police have arrested a man for allegedly stealing a nail gun from his former employer. Christopher Mcdaniel, 43, of Enfield, was charged with sixth-degree larceny.

He was held at court on bond and arraigned at Manchester Superior Court Wednesday morning.

His charge stems from a 2018 larceny of a nail gun from his former employer. Police said investigators determined that the nail gun was later sold to a pawnshop and obtained an arrest warrant for McDaniel, which was served Wednesday.

McDaniel, who won a $25,000 settlement against the Enfield Police Department stemming from an allegation of police brutality during a 2013 arrest, has been detained since his Nov. 2018 arrest in Enfield in connection with several burglaries. He is being held on total bonds of $100,050, according to judicial records.
