A convicted felon, Timothy Brandon Stubbs Jr, 27 of Rome, was arrested this week after reports said he was found with a gun and an opened bottle of alcohol during a traffic stop on Broad Street at East 6th Avenue.
Reports said that Stubbs was stopped for not having a working tag light when officers saw the opened bottle of alcohol.
A search then resulted in police finding the firearm.
Stubbs is charged with possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, open container and no tag light.
