Terry Haupt, 42, was charged with one count of possession of a weapon by a prohibited person; one count of third-degree unlawful opossession of a weapon (rifle); and one count of fourth-degree possession of a large-capacity ammunition
magazine, according to a press release from Santiago’s office.
The press release continues:
On September 22, 2025, 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.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.
In 2000, New Jersey court records show Haupt was sentenced to six years in prison after being charged with robbery and pleading guilty.
In 2010, a man matching Terry Haupt’s name and age was arrested in Red Bank and charged with aggravated assault and other charges for firing three shots into a vehicle at the corner of Drs. James Parker Boulevard and Bridge Avenue.
Attorneys representing Haupt could not be immediately located for comment.
