TAYLOR — A man under surveillance Oct. 23 for a suspected felonious assault involving a firearm a day earlier was arrested following a traffic stop.
The suspect matched the description of the man sought: he had corn row braids, was in his early twenties and was light-complected.
A traffic stop was conducted on southbound I-75 near Pennsylvania Road. The man was making furtive gestures under his front passenger seat.
The driver, a woman, gave permission for the vehicle to be searched, and a handgun was recovered.
The firearm, which was evidence in a felonious assault that occurred the day before, was a Glock 9V 9mm pistol with a fully loaded 15-round magazine and a 16th round in the chamber. The firearm was registered to the man, but he did not have a concealed pistol license.
