BRAWLEY, Calif. (KYMA) - A man was arrested while riding a bike after Brawley police found drugs and a firearm on him.

The Brawley Police Department (BPD) says officers stopped a 41-year-old man riding a bike on Cesar Chavez Street and Main Street.

Officers quickly learned the suspect was on active parole which lead to a search.

"The officers located drug paraphernalia as well as a firearm with a high-capacity magazine and the serial number removed from the firearm," said Jonathan Blackstone, Assistant Chief for BPD.

The suspect was arrested and taken to the Imperial County Jail and is being charged with four felony counts.
