A reckless driver with possession of firearms in his vehicle was recently stopped and arrested by the Cannon County Sheriff’s Department. According to police reports Jacob Foster, was reportedly driving reckless near the area of the old package store when Cannon County Sheriff’s Deputy Seth Perry passed the Black Mazda car Foster was driving. After stopping Foster before the city limits he ordered Foster to roll down his window in which Foster refused. Deputy Perry then saw a shotgun sitting in the passenger side of the car. Perry then drew his weapon and opened the car door himself during which Foster tried to pull the door back shut. Perry also noticed a pistol in a shoulder holster. After ordering Mr Foster to place his hands on the steering wheel of the car, Foster refused to do so as well even at gunpoint Foster continued to move around the car. Other officers arrived on the scene for backup. After finally getting Foster out of the car, it was determined through a series of sobriety test that he was driving under the influence. Foster was also charged with Violation of the Implied Consent Law, Unlawful Possession of Firearms and possession of a handgun while under the influence. The weapons removed from the car were a 12 gauge shotgun completely loaded and an unloaded Bushmaster AR-15
