Syracuse man sentenced to prison after firing loaded rifle at East Syracuse gas station
SYRACUSE, N.Y. (WSYR-TV) — 36-year-old Richard Bradley, of Syracuse, was sentenced to 14 months in prison, as he was convicted of being a felon who was found in possession of a firearm last fall. This stems from an incident back in September 2024 when Manlius Police found him being subdued in an East Syracuse Sunoco parking lot after firing his rifle. At the time, police told NewsChannel 9 that Bradley had fired an AR-15-style rifle while inside his car through the backseat and into the trunk. According to the U.S. Attorney's Office, as part of Bradley's guilty plea, he admitted that he had possessed a loaded assault rifle in his vehicle, which was parked at the gas station. 'Bradley inadvertently fired the rifle several times, but did not strike anyone. As a result of his prior felony conviction for criminal mischief, Bradley could not lawfully possess a firearm. Court Judge Glenn Suddaby also imposed a three-year term of supervised release to begin following Bradley's term of imprisonment, and ordered him to forfeit the rifle he possessed. 'When Bradley fired the rifle in the parking lot, he put the lives of everyone at that gas station in danger,' U.S. Attorney Sarcone stated. New York Field Division of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives and the Manlius Police Department investigated the case with assistance from the Onondaga County District Attorney's Office. Assistant U.S. Attorney Jessica N. Carbone prosecuted the case as part of Project Safe Neighborhoods. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

CNY man to face prison, $250K fine and more after firing AR-15 at Manlius gas station
MANLIUS, N.Y. (WSYR-TV) — A Syracuse man is facing possible time in federal prison for having an assault rifle at a gas station. Back in September, NewsChannel 9 first reported that then-35-year-old Richard Bradley was arrested after firing four rounds from an AR-15 style rifle inside his car that was parked outside the Sunoco gas station at Schepps Corners. Bullets went through his car but didn't hit any people. This week in federal court, Bradley pleaded guilty to possessing the rifle, which he was not supposed to have due to a prior felony conviction. As a result, Bradley now faces up to 15 years behind bars, a $250,000 fine, and must turn over the rifle. Sentencing is scheduled for this June.
