Description
Terrence L. Hawkins appeals his conviction for one count of the class D felony of unlawful use of a weapon, under section 571.030, RSMo 2000, and one count of the class A misdemeanor of possession of a controlled substance, marijuana, under section 195.202. On appeal, Mr. Hawkins claims that the court erred in overruling his motion to suppress evidence because the initial stop, the pat-down search of his person, and the subsequent search of the car in which he was a passenger were illegal, and any evidence obtained was inadmissible as fruit of the poisonous tree. Mr. Hawkins also claims that the State did not establish that he knowingly carried a loaded gun on or about his person and, therefore, failed to prove that he committed the crime of unlawful use of a weapon. Because this court finds that the stop and searches were lawful, and the evidence was sufficient to support Mr. Hawkins conviction for unlawful use of a weapon, the judgment is affirmed.
