LAS VEGAS (AP) — The man known to millions of cable TV viewers as Chumlee on the reality show "Pawn Stars" was being held in a Las Vegas jail late Wednesday following his arrest on felony weapon and drug charges.

Police said Austin Lee Russell was arrested Wednesday afternoon when officers searching on a warrant in a sexual assault investigation found methamphetamine, marijuana and at least one gun at his southwest Las Vegas home.

The 33-year-old Russell wasn't booked on a sex-crime allegation. Officer Larry Hadfield, a department spokesman, said that part of the investigation is continuing.

Records showed Russell was being held on 19 drug possession charges and one weapon charge. His bail was set at $62,000.

This has to be one of the most perfect jokes I've seen here, holy s***! I'm going through your posts and repping you like 3 or 4 times. 

 

Wow thanks so much! I don't think I've ever had a post on here so well received and this might well be the nicest thing anyone's ever said about me. o_O 

 

My flashes of inspiration are pretty few and far between, but again thank you. xD

 

As for the actual guy who got jailed, I haven't seen Pawn Stars but I'm generally against possession charges unless they're selling and think rehab is the better way to go for drug addicts who need help. The weapons thing I can understand though, though being wrapped up in drugs is likely the reason he'd go to such lengths to defend himself.
