Deputy C.R. Newman was in the area when he observed a lone vehicle in the commuter lot. When Deputy Newman made contact with the driver, the driver was rather uncooperative and advised he “committed no crime.” Due to several signs of intoxication his statement was incorrect. During their interaction, it was discovered a handgun was within the vehicle, hidden from plain view. The driver was charged with driving under the influence, carrying a concealed weapon without a permit, and refusal. He was held at Rappahannock Regional Jail until sober.
