A man who was arrested for the 45th time also led Clayton County sheriff deputies to a huge haul.
Authorities found hundreds of guns during a bust at a Lovejoy pawn shop Wednesday night. The bust happened at the Diamond Pawn Shop on Tara Boulevard.
About 400 guns were found inside the pawn shop and storage shed. The business is not licensed to sell firearms. Diamond Pawn Shop is also accused of selling guns to convicted felons.
"This is basically an underground market for firearms," Sheriff Kem Kimbrough told Channel 2 Action News.
Robert Stevenson was busted for the 45th time Tuesday night. He was arrested at his home for possession of marijuana and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Authorities said that arrest led them to the pawn shop.
