KALAMAZOO (WKZO AM/FM) – Kalamazoo Public Safety officers, conducting a traffic stop Friday night, got more than they bargained for, as they discovered over 200 ecstasy tablets and a loaded weapon.
The stop was made in the 5300 block of Portage St for a civil infraction, and officers smelled marijuana as they got closer to the vehicle.
They also noticed that the vehicle’s occupants seemed nervous. Once they were asked to leave the car, one of the passengers let officers know he had a gun.
The gun was located, along with the ecstasy, and a 28 year old Kalamazoo man was arrested on concealed weapon, felony firearm, and possession with intent to deliver charges.
