A Rochester man has been charged in connection with an incident that occurred in September of 2016 that involved a Molotov cocktail.
Earlier this week the Arson Task Forced charged 21-year-old Tyler Fick with criminal possession of a weapon.
Authorities say they found a Molotov cocktail at a home on Bricker Street while conducting a separate investigation. Authorities say their investigation led them to Fick, who was subsequently charged with possession of the device.
Investigators believe Fick built the device with the intent to use it to commit arson at a location in the City of Rochester, but the plot was never carried out.
