Authorities in Monmouth County announced that a Red Bank man has been charged in connection with a shots-fired investigation in Rumson on Monday afternoon.
Monmouth County Prosecutor Raymond S. Santiago stated that Terry Haupt, 42, was charged with one count of second-degree Certain Persons Not to Possess a Weapon, one count of third-degree Unlawful Possession of a Weapon (rifle), and one count of fourth-degree Possession of a Large-Capacity Ammunition Magazine.
According to MCPO officials, on September 22, at approximately 3:24 p.m., members of the Rumson Police Department responded to a residence on Meadowbrook Avenue for a reported bullet that went through the caller’s window.
Remnants of one projectile were later recovered in the home, MCPO officials say. 
Monmouth County authorities said a subsequent investigation by members of the Monmouth County Prosecutor’s Office and Rumson Police Department revealed that Haupt, who was located in the area, was in possession of a rifle and a large capacity ammunition magazine, and was ultimately determined to be a certain person not legally permitted to possess a firearm.
