BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — The U.S. Attorney's Office says a Buffalo woman has been arraigned on felony charges which include illegal gun and ammo charges.

28-year-old Sharee Bailey, who is a convicted felon and a self-proclaimed member of the Riverdale Gang, was arrested and charged by criminal complaint with being a felon in possession of a firearm.

According to the U.S. Attorney's Office, between October 12, 2017, and March 5, 2020, Bailey posted numerous photographs and videos on various social media accounts depicting herself displaying what appears to be multiple semi¬automatic handguns, revolvers, and rifles.

Law enforcement officers then entered a home on Landon Street in Buffalo and recovered .22 caliber rifle and one spent .9mm shell casing, upon executing a search warrant at the home.

Officers also recovered a gun box for a .40 caliber pistol with one magazine inside the box, and what appears to be a bullet hole inside the home, along with various types and calibers of ammunition throughout the apartment, and two cell phones.

Bailey if convicted could face a maximum of ten years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
