Poop Shoot(er)

North Carolina police believe that a man they arrested and booked into the county jail earlier this week managed to smuggle an unloaded 10-inch firearm into the cell with him. According to police, the man “may have” stashed a .38 barrel revolver in his rectum. Keep in mind that this is after a strip search & being tased, where its pretty damn hard to control your bodily functions, or so I’m (ahem) told.

A man arrested this week in North Carolina may have stashed a .38 barrel revolver in his rectum, according to police, who reported that the unloaded 10-inch weapon was not discovered until after the suspect had been booked into a cell in the county jail.

Michael Leon Ward, a 22-year-old Georgia resident, was arrested Monday after a trooper spotted him speeding. Ward, who resisted arrest, was subdued with the help of a stun gun. A subsequent search of his vehicle resulted in additional charges for possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia.

But it was only after Ward–who is a fugitive on a murder warrant out of Atlanta–entered the Onslow County jail that sheriff’s investigators discovered what else he possessed.

According to cops, Ward, summoned jailers to his cell, claiming that someone was trying to kill him, and that he discovered a gun inside his cell. The weapon was found in the toilet, where Ward claimed he tossed it after finding it in his bunk.

The recovered gun is pictured in the above police evidence photo.

Sheriff’s investigators say they are investigating how Ward got the weapon into the jail, since he had been “strip searched prior to being booked into a cell block.” The inmate, a press release notes, was taken today to a local hospital “for possible injuries that may have occurred to Ward’s rectum where it is believed Ward may have concealed” the revolver.

The gun, deputies reported, was test fired and found to be operational.

The gun may have been operational but I’m betting any money that it was a shit shot, YSWIDT?. It was also unloaded when they found it, I wouldn’t be standing behind that dude for a while if you know what I mean.
