When Fresno police pulled 33-year-old Khamprasong Thammavong over at 5:40 p.m. Monday, they say they were just performing a routine traffic stop. But what followed was anything but routine, from Thammavong's proud advertisement for a Italian luxury goods company to the contents of his home.
ABC 7 reports that Thammavong was already on probation when he was pulled over, and is a documented member of the Laos Bloods, a gang that made headlines last year when they were engaged in a bloody dispute with the Pinedale Bulldogs (what is this, 1860s New York?) over the Fresno-area weed trade.
When the officer realized who Thammavong was, he called the Southeast Violent Crime Impact Team (for more on VCITs, go here) and they searched his home — as a condition of Thammavong's probation, they apparently had that legal right. When they did they found "a semi-automatic rifle and a semi-automatic handgun, which were not registered to Thammavong," as well as "tactical gear similar to law enforcement equipment, numerous items linking him with gang activity, 38 marijuana plants and narcotics paraphernalia."
Thammavong did not have a license to possess or grow weed, ABC 7 reports. He "was arrested for numerous felony charges, including felon in possession of a firearm and cultivation of marijuana."
Thammavong was booked into Fresno County Jail, and remains in custody today. So, Gucci, you know where to find him to offer him a contract for your next big campaign!
