(BCN) -- A man from Washington state was arrested in Ukiah on Saturday for allegedly possessing a gun, drugs and large mortar-style fireworks, according to police. While on patrol, two police officers saw a GMC Yukon SUV fail to stop at a stop sign in the 100 block of South Main Street in central Ukiah shortly after 1:20 a.m. Officers pulled the vehicle over for a traffic enforcement stop during which they found a black handgun behind the center console. The driver, 51-year-old Grady Gavin Hollenbeck, was asked to exit the vehicle. As he exited the vehicle, officers saw a glass methamphetamine pipe in the driver's side door pocket. According to Ukiah police, Hollenbeck was detained in a patrol vehicle as officers proceeded to search the vehicle using probable cause.
