OCEAN CITY, Md. — Three people, including a juvenile, were arrested Saturday night after Ocean City Police discovered stolen firearms and marijuana during a traffic stop.
Around 8 p.m. on June 15, officers stopped a vehicle near N. Division Street and Baltimore Avenue. All four occupants were under 21 years old, and officers reported smelling marijuana coming from inside the vehicle.
