The radio traffic between the on-the-scene officer and his supervisor showed that defendant was committing no crime and there was no reasonable belief that defendant was in possession of a gun. United States v. Martin, 2011 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 8281 (E.D. Mich. January 28, 2011).*<\/p>\n
The officer had cause for stopping defendant. 911 received a shooting call describing an African-American male with braids and a blue or black hoodie. Arriving five minutes later, the officer saw one man matching that description. United States v. Varner, 2010 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 140542 (D. Minn. December 21, 2010).*<\/p>\n
