Traffic Stop Turns Into Gun Arrest

On April 18, 2023, our officers observed a 2013 blue BMW 328i with tinted windows and expired registration traveling in the area of Sonoma Blvd and Redwood St.

Our officers conducted a traffic stop on the BMW for the listed vehicle violations. When our officers contacted the driver, they smelled a strong odor of marijuana inside the vehicle. They also saw marijuana in plain view on the center console.

A license check on the driver revealed he was under the age of 21. The driver did not have a physician's recommendation for medicinal use and possession to justify why he violated California's possession of marijuana laws.

The driver was detained for being in possession of marijuana under the age of 21 without a physician's note. Officers searched the BMW and located a loaded firearm with an extended magazine inside the vehicle.

The male was arrested and transported to the county jail. The BMW was towed from the scene.
