PORTSMOUTH — In separate incidents, two people were recently arrested after illegal weapons were found in their vehicles, according to police.

In the first incident, while on patrol in the area of Mason Avenue and Pine Street around 5:40 p.m. on Friday, March 1, officers stopped a vehicle after observing it running a stop sign and drift into the breakdown lane, according to police.

While speaking with the operator, Adam H. Davis, 42, of 12 Beacon Court, Newport, officers observed his eyes to be bloodshot, watery, and glassy, and his speech to be mumbled and slurred, police said. Davis also had uncontrollable body movements, sores on his face, burnt fingertips, and rapid speech, police said.

Davis failed a series of field sobriety tests, and during an inventory search of the vehicle officers found a police baton located in the crevasse of the driver’s seat, according to police.

Davis was charged with driving under the influence (DUI), first offense; and possession of an illegal weapon other than a firearm. He was also cited for refusal to submit to a chemical test, police said.

The second incident involved a vehicle being stopped on West Main Road at about 1:40 a.m. on Sunday, March 3 for equipment and moving violations, police said. A passenger, Diana Marlyn Farizo-Ferreira, 45, of 23 Homestead Ave., Acushnet, Mass., appeared to be intoxicated and did not possess a Rhode Island license to carry a firearm that was found adjacent to her, police said.

Farizo-Ferreira was charged with carrying a weapon while intoxicated, police said.
