PRICEVILLE, Ala. (WHNT) — A Tennessee man with several active warrants was arrested by Priceville Police after a traffic stop on Tuesday.
On Tuesday at 10:42 p.m., Priceville Police pulled a vehicle over along I-65 near mile marker 335.
While officers were speaking with the individuals inside the vehicle, a man identified as Trevor Allen Armstrong, 20, of Columbia, Tennessee gave a false name to law enforcement to avoid being identified.
According to police, when the false name could not be verified, Armstrong eventually told police his real name, which led to police finding out that he had several active warrants for Felony Aggravated Assault and Domestic Violence Assault issued by the Pulaski Police Department in Pulaski, Tennessee.
The Priceville Police Department and the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency then carried out a probable cause search of the vehicle which led to authorities finding a Glock 45 handgun, a quantity of marijuana, and various items of drug paraphernalia.
Priceville Police told News 19 that Armstrong has a history of multiple convictions related to narcotics and violent crimes, including robbery, theft of property, evading arrest, and burglary of a vehicle.
He is currently on probation in Tennessee due to a suspended sentence exceeding eight years.
Armstrong was arrested and charged with being a certain person forbidden to possess a firearm and obstructing justice by using a false identity.
He was transported to the Morgan County Jail and was issued a $80,000 bond with a hold for authorities in Tennessee.
