During the search of the vehicle, the officer found an illegally possessed loaded handgun. According to police, the gun was a "ghost gun" because it did not have any serial numbers on the firearm.

Colbertvance and his passenger, Keysharie Fletcher, 25, were both arrested on several felony and misdemeanor charges.
