SONOMA COUNTY, CA – Santa Rosa police arrested a Sebastopol man Thursday for possession of drugs and weapons.

Police detectives, armed with a search warrant, stopped Andanie Antonio Mondragon's vehicle after he left his residence on Schaeffer Road in Sebastopol around 10 a.m., and found a quarter-pound of methamphetamine and a 9mm semiautomatic handgun in his vehicle, Sgt. Rich Celli said.

Detectives later found 2.2 pounds of methamphetamine, several pounds of marijuana, a loaded pistol gripped shotgun, rifle-rated body armor and a functional Sten MK5 submachine gun in Mondragon's rented bedroom of the residence on the 2200 block of Schaeffer Road in Sebastopol, Celli said.

He was booked in the Sonoma County Jail for possession and transportation of methamphetamine and marijuana, possession of an assault rifle, possession of firearms while dealing narcotics and committing a felony while out on bail for a prior offense, Celli said.
