    Police say men had meth, assault rifle in Santa Cruz home

    What offense is worse? Are they going to be charged for all three?

    Police say men had meth, assault rifle in Santa Cruz home

    SANTA CRUZ - Two men were arrested Friday on the 1600 block of Branciforte Drive, where authorities said they found meth, drug paraphernalia and a Ruger assault rifle.

    About 7 p.m., Santa Cruz police and sheriff's deputies arrested David Archuleta, 28, of Scotts Valley and Jonathan Replogle, 27, of Santa Cruz County.

    A tip led police to Replogle's main residence on Branciforte, said Santa Cruz police spokesman Zach Friend, in a statement. Both men showed signs of being under the influence of stimulants and narcotics, police said.

    Authorities said they were arrested without incident.

    Archuleta is a felon who has had drug-related arrests and had outstanding warrants for his arrest, police said. He was staying at the Branciforte house, police said.

    Authorities said they also found prescription Oxycontin pills at the residence, as well as pepper spray and a Ruger Mini-14 rifle loaded with a high-capacity magazine.
    Archuleta was arrested on suspicion of drug possession, possession of pepper spray by a convicted felon, being under the influence of drugs, police said.

    Replogle was arrested on suspicion of drug possession, being under the influence of drugs, possession of a firearm by a narcotic addict, possession of ammunition by a narcotic addict and possession of an assault rifle.

    Santa Cruz police ask anyone with information on the incident to call the tip line at 420-5995.

    Thank you for this info.

    Will be interesting to look into the gun aspect.

    Despite the chance of some measure of disagreeableness of the defendants, some communication may be necessary.

    However, if felons are exposed to the gun/mags/ammo it may be a bit moot.

          I knew I recognized that name somewhere.

          Also, if a mini-14 is now an Assault Rifle then my AR is an ICBM

                Maybe the mini-14 had evil features?
                "It wasn't a failure of laws," said Amanda Wilcox, who along with her husband, Nick, lobbies for the California chapter of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence. "I just don't see how our gun laws could have stopped something like that."

                  It shoots bullets. Isn't that evil enough?

                    If it had a folding stock or other "evil" features it could very well be classified correctly . Stock mini-14 ......... nope

                        His charge will be Poss of a Assault Riffle with a controlled substances . The charge went from 1 year to 3 in a half pos 4. Poss of a Assault riffle can just be a Felony infraction that can swing felony or mismiter depends on the DA or one year up state.
