He was arrested earlier this week.
A Walkersville man arrested earlier this week has been indicted by the Grand Jury. The panel on Friday charged Vincent Vaughn Moore, 22, with felony possession of a handgun, possession of body armor (a bullet-proof vest) after a felony conviction, and possession of marijuana with intent to distribute.
Moore was arrested on Wednesday at his home in 8700 block of Victory Court by Frederick County Narcotics Task Force officers. State's attorney Charlie Smith says the officers confiscated a shotgun, shells and a bullet-proof vest. "They found ecstasy and marijuana, and {he} was also indicted on those charges," says Smith.
Smith says Moore had a previous felony conviction for marijuana possession and could not legally possess a firearm.
The indictment means that this "case will move on to the Circuit Court, where he'll have a trial in 180 days," Smith says.
Two other men arrested during the search and seizure operation at Moore's home on Wednesday are identified as Cameron Cortez Bryan, 24, who lives at the same address as the defendant, and Christopher Roland Thompson, 23, who resides at 13,800 Old Annapolis Road in Mount Airy. They were charged with possession of marijuana, and were released on personal recognizance. Moore was taken to the Adult Detention Center.
