Cops: Raid Finds Gun, Drugs in Fairfield Home

FAIRFIELD, Conn. – A Fairfield woman was charged with drug possession after a raid on her Kenwood Avenue home Wednesday morning. Elizabeth Gonzalez, 36, was arrested after Fairfield and Connecticut State police found a handgun and prescription medications in her house, police say.

Gonzalez is suspected of selling drugs in both Fairfield and Bridgeport, police say. The Statewide Urban Violence Cooperative Crime Control Task Force filed for a search warrant for her Fairfield home, which was served Wednesday.

Fairfield Police officers stopped her car as she drove away from the home Wednesday morning. Inside they found three baggies of a white powder that later tested positive for cocaine, police say. A search of her house at the same time also turned up Percocet and Oxycodone tablets, and a Walther PPK 380 handgun, according to police reports. The gun’s serial number had been worn down, and police believe it might have been stolen.

Gonzalez was charged with possession of narcotics and keeping prescription medication out of its original container. She was also charged with possession within 1,500 feet of a school. She was then taken to Connecticut State Police Troop G headquarters in Bridgeport for processing.
