Akron police recovered 23 guns and thousands of prescription pills during a traffic stop Monday.

Police say they ran a random registration check on a vehicle parked in a Romig Road nightclub, and picked up warrants on the vehicle owner on charges including outstanding warrants to include drug abuse marijuana, obstructing official business and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Akron police say they peeked into the car, saw ammunition, and took the driver into custody after being told there "might be" a rifle in the car.

Officers then found 23 guns, holsters, ammunition, marijuana and and a number of prescription medications.

Of the 23 weapons inside, police say two were confirmed stolen, and they're checking on the other 21.
