During the course of the detention, the officer discovered that London had an active warrant, so the officer placed him under arrest.  The officer then reportedly learned that the only passenger in the car had no valid driver\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s license, so the officer called for a tow truck and performed an inventory of the car.  During the course of the inventory, the officer discovered a sawed-off shotgun.  The officer checked London\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s criminal history and found that he had been previously convicted of forgery in Gregg County in 2012 and possession of cocaine in Tarrant County in 2008.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TYLER &#8211; A 39-year-old Longview man has been sentenced to 42 months in federal prison for being a felon in possession of a firearm.
