But it started on July 4th when police records showed that Milbes was pulled over near West Wilshire Blvd. and Broadway Extension for multiple traffic violations.

An officer found Milbes had a camouflage Mossy Oak .22 caliber rifle with a Weaver Scope, along with 207 rounds of .22 caliber ammunition.

When officers allegedly asked why he had the rifle he said it was because they used it to shoot turtles.

Records show that Milbes told police he was a convicted felon and should not be allowed firearms.

Then on July 26th records stated that officers were called to 8701 North Kelley Ave. about stolen construction equipment found by a representative of Sunbelt Rentals.
