Man Charged After Police Find Guns

{West Virginia}...Tuesday, South Charleston Police Officers were moving a seized Cadillac, registered to Elbert L. Hall, from their garage when they opened the hood to jump-start the battery and found a gray plastic bag wrapped inside a white cloth containing a loaded Glock .22 caliber pistol. The same day, officers spotted Hall driving a different Cadillac west on MacCorkle Avenue and pulled him over when he allegedly made an illegal lane change. Police say Hall threw two plastic baggies with marijuana outside the passenger window. Police searched the car and found another Glock .27 caliber pistol wrapped in a white cloth under the car's hood and $3,000 in separate bundles inside the glove compartment. Hall was charged with felony counts of possession with intent to deliver marijuana and being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm, along with misdemeanor counts.
