(Bridgeport, CT – March 5, 2014) – A city man faces narcotics and other charges following a motor vehicle stop Tuesday.

Officer Joaquim DeBarros was dispatched to the 1100 block of Stratford Avenue on a report of suspicious activity just after 2 a.m.

As he approached the vehicle in question, the driver quickly drove off. Police pulled him over several blocks away.

In plain view, officers observed a small orange baggie that contained a brown leafy substance and observed a black electronic stun gun on the seat next to the driver.

Police subsequently located several pills and two off-white “chips” that tested positive for cocaine. The substance in the baggie tested positive for PCP.

The driver, Eugene Brown, 29, a convicted felon, was charged with failure to keep narcotics in their original container, possession of narcotics, possession of drug paraphernalia, criminal possession of an electronic defense weapon, using a motor vehicle without the owner’s permission and a motor vehicle offense.
