Weapons found during traffic stop

A 31-year-old Homestead, Florida motorist wanted in a hit-and-run investigation was arrested Thursday after marijuana and guns were found.

Eldrick Wendell Wooding was charged with marijuana possession, and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Wooding was stopped in Key Largo after the Sheriff’s Office received reports of a hit-and-run (which occurred in Miami-Dade County) and reckless driver in a Dodge Charger on U.S. 1. at approximately 5:20 a.m.

Four jars with marijuana residue, a digital scale, and small amounts of marijuana were found throughout the vehicle. An AK-47 rifle was located in the trunk and a pistol was found under the driver’s seat.
