Rochester Woman Arrested On Gun Charge

A 19-year-old woman from Rochester, New York, has been arrested and charged with gun possession after stealing firearms from a residence. Tatiana Starling, 19, was arrested on September 16, 2015 and charged with knowing and unlawful possession of a firearm which had been stolen from a residence at 1070 Lake Avenue in Rochester.

The charges carry a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison, a fine of $250,000, or both.

According to the complaint, on July 29, 2015, Starling was the get-away driver after her boyfriend, Johnny Blackshell, along with Ramel Robinson, unlawfully entered the residence at 1070 Lake Avenue and stole a gun safe containing three firearms and numerous rounds of ammunition.

The stolen firearms included an AK-47, a .40 caliber carbine rifle, and a 12 gauge single shot shotgun. The AK-47 was later recovered by police hidden under the front porch of a residence on Clay Avenue. The gun has been linked ballistically to the gun used in the mass shooting at the Boys and Girls Club on August 19, 2015.

On September 16, 2015, Blackshell was formally charged in New York state court with Murder 1st Degree relating to that event. Ramel Robinson faces federal charges of unlawful possession of the firearms stolen from 1070 Lake Avenue.

Starling will appear before U.S. Magistrate Judge Marian W. Payson on November 10, 2015.
