A Hemet man faces multiple drug and weapons charges after his arrest Monday following a traffic stop in Menifee, authorities said.

The arrest was made at 11:29 a.m. at the intersection of Highway 74 and Palomar Road, according to jail records. The suspect, identified as 26-year-old Daniel Rios, initially provided false identification but later revealed his true identity, Menifee Police Department reported on its Facebook page.

From the Facebook report: “Rios was found to be on active probation. A search of the vehicle uncovered a loaded, unserialized firearm, 131 grams of suspected methamphetamine, a digital scale, two meth pipes, and two additional loaded handgun magazines in the center console.”

Rios is a convicted felon prohibited from possessing firearms or ammunition. The vehicle was towed and a gray pitbull found in the car was taken by animal control.

Rios was due in court in Murrieta today to face six felony and two misdemeanor charges.

Thank you so much for this. A lot of kids don't obey any traffic laws and think they own the right of way when ridding. They definitely need to be educated on rules of the road.
