Princeton Residents Nabbed With Handguns In Township

Two Princeton residents face gun charges after their June 20 arrests at a Route 27 apartment complex.

Kelly Ambrose, 31 and Elizabeth DeFrank, 48, were each charged with two counts of 2nd Degree Unlawful Possession of a Firearm, according to a press release from the Somerset County Prosecutor’s Office.

The Prosecutor’s Office Organized Crime and Narcotics Task Force on June 20 received information that the two would be arriving at the complex in a white pickup, and they would be in possession of two handguns, according to the release.

Detectives from the task force and the township police Crime Suppression Unit arrived ahead of time and set up surveillance, the release said.

Police saw the two arrive in the pickup truck at about 10:45 p.m., according to the release. Police stopped the car and received consent to do a search.

The search revealed a .41 cabler Smith & Wesson and a .22 caliber Ruger Mark II in the car, the release said.

Ambrose and DeFrank are lodged in the Somerset County Jail, Somerville, on $100,000 bail, each.
