North Little Rock police on Tuesday afternoon arrested a man who was in an apartment that he wasn't allowed to be in, where they also found drugs and a gun, according to an arrest report.
Officers said they encountered Nathaniel Hunter, 41, of Little Rock alone in an apartment unit around 3:40 p.m. at 2503 Division St. after a manager for the building asked them to do a security sweep, saying nobody should be in the unit.
Hunter was the only one near a desk where drugs and a gun were found, according to the report. He is a felon and cannot legally own a gun, the report said.
Hunter is charged with simultaneous possession of drugs and a gun and possession of a firearm by a certain person, both felonies.
