When Mounties arrived at 6:33 a.m., they say they asked him to wake up and get out of the car and that’s when they saw a loaded pistol on the passenger seat floor.

“The man was arrested immediately and the vehicle searched,” RCMP said in a press release.

“During the secondary search a second loaded pistol was revealed in a bag with a spare magazine and a round in the chamber. A further search located, bear spray, brass knuckles and multiple knives.”
