Austin Russell’s arrest took place on March 9, 2016, when he was apprehended and detained on weapon and gun charges. It was reported that the police recovered illegal firearms including shotguns, MP5, handguns, and other kinds of rifles when they raided the reality TV star’s home.
Also found in Chumlee’s apartment were methamphetamine and marijuana. The cops bumped into the items when they stormed his house to serve a warrant in a sexual assault case.
In the long run, the Pawn Stars’ bloke was slammed with a one-count charge of possessing a firearm and 19 charges of drug possession. He pleaded guilty in court and was then released the following day. The star was, however, advised to see a counsellor and sentenced to three years probation. Meanwhile, the sexual assault charges against him were dropped by the prosecutors.
