Police raid ends with three Pagan bikers in custody By Christopher Roberson T hree individuals allegedly belonging to the Pagan Motorcycle Club were arrested during a State Police raid on the evening of April 19. The raid occurred after police obtained a search warrant for a clubhouse on Orient Avenue. According to police, the three men were “wearing their club affiliation patches and insignia.” Allegedly, police recovered four unregistered semiautomatic handguns as well as a separate magazine, all of which were loaded; officers also discovered a cash bar that was operating without a liquor license. Subsequently, James Snow, 28, of Tewksbury, was charged with two counts of illegal possession of a firearm, illegal possession of a large capacity feeding device, two counts of illegal possession of ammunition and two counts of improperly storing a firearm. Jeffrey Wentworth, 47, of Gilmanton Iron Works, N.H., was charged with illegal possession of a firearm, illegal possession of ammunition and improper storage of a firearm. Prior to the raid, Marcus Basiliere, 26, of Derry, N.H., was wanted for larceny in New Hampshire. Therefore, he was arraigned as a fugitive from justice in Malden District Court. Snow, Wentworth and Basiliere were initially arraigned on April 22. During the arraignment, Judge Jane Prince had set bail at $1,000. However, an open firearms case in Lowell District Court caused her to withdraw the bail amount completely. Basiliere is scheduled to be back in court on May 1; Wentworth and Snow are scheduled to be back in court on May 21. The investigation remains ongoing at this time.
