CHARLESTON, W.Va. (WSAZ)-- A routine traffic stop Sunday morning led to the arrest of a local rapper.

State Police pulled over Randy Taylor, also known as "Ateezy", on the corner of Quarrier street and Route 119 after the trooper noticed his temporary registration had expired.

When the trooper approached the vehicle, he noticed Taylor had slurred speech and glazed eyes. Taylor admitted to being under the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance.

A small baggie of marijuana was found in Taylor's pants pocket and a loaded pistol was found under the seat of the car.

Drugs were also found on the person sitting in the front seat of the car.

Taylor is charged with carrying a concealed firearm without a permit and simple possession of marijuana.
