Man brandishes handgun in Iron River, drug bust follows

IRON RIVER, MI--   The arrest of an Iron River man on drug and assault charges led to a search warrant being executed at a house in the city.  

WLUC-TV reports a 38-year-old man pulled a handgun on someone Friday afternoon in the parking lot of the CoVantage Credit Union.  He was arrested for felonious assault, possession of marijuana, and carrying a concealed weapon.

The Iron River Police Department later executed a search warrant at a residence and found marijuana, hallucinogens, cocaine, suboxone, suspected meth, and firearms. 

The suspect is lodged in the Iron County Jail. 

The case remains under investigation.
