Two Michigan men were arrested on Saturday (Oct. 24) by Bowling Green Police for allegedly having nitrous oxide and a firearm in their vehicle.
Police pulled over the vehicle in the 100 block of East Court Street around 10 p.m., for reportedly not having its headlights on. Officers reportedly found bottles of nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and a baggie of different types of pills that the driver allegedly said he had taken from his grandmother’s house. In the trunk, officers reportedly found a pistol.
Willis Cherry, 22, of Saline, was arrested for possession of nitrous oxide in a vehicle. Elon Bankhead, 25, Ypsilanti, was arrested for improper handling of a firearm in a motor vehicle. Both were taken to Wood County Jail.
