Two firearms seized, three arrested after reckless driving stop

May 21, 2020 by Kalamazoo Public Safety

Just after 8:00 p.m. on May 20, 2020, a KDPS officer was on patrol in the area of N Burdick St / E Clay St. The officer’s focus was addressing the numerous reckless and exhibition driving complaints in that area over the past week. The officer spotted an SUV drive into a vacant lot and begin driving recklessly through the grass, spinning its tires and doing donuts. Upon stopping the vehicle, officers located two pistols with extended magazines in the passenger compartment.

The occupants, two 21 year-olds and a 27 year-old (all Kalamazoo residents) were arrested and lodged at the Kalamazoo County Jail on weapons charges.

Anyone having information regarding this incident is asked to contact the Kalamazoo Department of Public Safety at (269) 488-8911 or Silent Observer at (269) 343-2100

By authority of: Sgt. Chuck Mason
