MISSOURI MAN ARRESTED IN TRAFFIC STOP

St. Louis, Missouri resident Demetrius Lamonte Joe, Jr., was arrested Friday afternoon, following a traffic stop on Interstate 68 Westbound, near the 41-mile marker. Allegany County Sheriff’s deputies observed several factors, which led them to believe criminal activity was present. A probable cause search was done, and they observed a loaded Glock 9-mm handgun. He had been prohibited from having a gun, due to two, separate prior felony convictions for burglary and theft. He was arrested and charged with several counts. The Sheriff’s Department was assisted on the scene by the Cumberland City Police.
