Shotguns, handguns, white powdery substances in baggies, random pills, and medicine bottles full of a "green leafy substance". Sounds like a typical Saturday night for me :ph34r::lol:

 

Police: Eagles coach's son accused of pointing gun at motorist

PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- A son of Philadelphia Eagles coach Andy Reid was accused of pulling a gun on another motorist, police records show. Police later seized a shotgun and containers with white powder or residue from Britt Reid's vehicle and a pistol from the home he shares with his parents.

 

On the same day, Britt's older brother, Garrett Reid, was found with drug paraphernalia after his sport-utility vehicle collided with another vehicle in nearby Plymouth Township, authorities said. He was taken to a hospital for drug tests, but it could take a week to get the results, Joseph F. Lawrence, the township's deputy police chief, said Thursday.

 

Both cases are under investigation and no charges have been filed. Prosecutors said Thursday they could not comment on the investigations.

 

Andy Reid was on vacation and not at home at the time of the search. He returned home Wednesday. The coach did not have any immediate comment, Eagles spokesman Derek Boyko said.

 

Britt Reid brandished the gun after getting into an argument Tuesday morning in suburban West Conshohocken with a motorist he tried but could not pass, according to a police affidavit.

 

The affidavit said 21-year-old Britt Reid got out of his sport-utility vehicle and yelled at the other motorist, then returned to his SUV and pulled out a platinum-colored handgun. He then pointed the gun directly at the other driver, smiled and took off, the affidavit said, but not before the motorist took down his license plate number.

 

A search warrant was executed late Tuesday at the coach's home in suburban Villanova, but it was directed only at his son, who had been driving an SUV owned by his parents.

 

From the vehicle police recovered a shotgun, ammunition, a container holding eight clear baggies with white residue, a container with white powder, four small white pills, and a pharmacy bottle holding a green leafy substance, according to a list of seized property obtained Thursday by The Associated Press.

 

A pistol and ammunition also were seized from the house, although police did not say where in the house.
