A DUI stop in Tacoma led to the seizure of a MAC-11 submachine gun, the Tacoma Police Department (TPD) reported.

Officers pulled a driver over for speeding and suspected impairment.

“Upon contacting the driver, officers quickly became concerned due to his erratic behavior and alarming statements,” police stated in a . “The driver, a convicted felon currently out on bail for burglary and subject to multiple protection orders, admitted to recent methamphetamine use and made disturbing comments about being radicalized and possessing a firearm.”

In police body camera footage included in the post, the man admitted to having a MAC-11 in the car. Officers recovered that weapon and others from the vehicle.

Tacoma DUI suspect tells police: ‘I feel like I’m being radicalized to go on a mass shooting’

“I’ll be under the influence, I can’t recall like what I’ve been doing, but when I smoke meth I just sit there for like 10 hours,” the man said on the video. “And it’s like I’m just being sexually assaulted, and I feel like I’m being radicalized to go on a mass shooting. Hence the gun in the car.”

Officers subsequently obtained a search warrant for the driver’s home after concerns about his mental state and the possibility of additional weapons. Police found more firearms and an abundance of ammunition, TPD stated.

The man was booked into the Pierce County Jail on seven counts of unlawful possession of a firearm, possession of a stolen firearm, and DUI.
