At approximately 11 p.m. Friday, Jan. 4, police pulled over 22-year-old Donta Hood of Brockton for speeding on Cranberry Highway in East Wareham. Officers James White and Daniel Henderson “noticed a handgun under the front seat and within reach," police said.

The officers recovered a .25 caliber handgun from the car and arrested both Hood and his passenger, 44-year-old Wareham resident John Thomas. Both men were charged with possession of a firearm and possession of a loaded firearm.
