STEVENSON, Wash. — The Skamania County Sheriff’s office says that a 23-year-old man was arrested after deputies found handguns, drugs and high-capacity magazines in his car.
The department says they pulled him over initially because of a license plate violation.
When he went to get his registration and other documents, deputies say they noticed two loaded high-capacity handgun magazines partially under the driver’s seat.
The driver was immediately removed from the vehicle and detained.
Two loaded handguns were located near the passenger seat.
The driver did not have a valid concealed pistol license.
The driver was arrested and booked into the Skamania County Jail on two gun charges and driving without a license.
During the investigation, deputies say they saw signs of drugs so they seized the car and got a search warrant.
Inside, they found prepackaged medications like Xanax and Adderall pills, and bottles of promethazine with codeine.
The driver advised the medications had been illegally purchased online.
Charges for Possession of a Controlled Substance with Intent to Deliver will be forwarded to the Skamania County Prosecutors Office.
