A 47 year old man crossing Old Fort Parkway caught the watchful eye of Murfreesboro Police on Monday afternoon. The subject, who was wearing all black, had a pink backpack with him. Evidently, when police pulled up to the man, he quickly dropped the backpack stating that he had a BB Gun inside of it.

Officers then questioned Kyle Miranda and asked if they could retrieve the BB Gun from the backpack, which he said okay to. As the officer opened the pack, it was noted that a strong smell of marijuana was present.
