Three men are arrested in Santa Rosa after police uncover a ghost gun and suspected fentanyl hidden in a Gucci-inspired handbag during a traffic stop on May 30, 2025. The incident began when an officer noticed a vehicle lacking a front license plate, subsequently leading to a search prompted by the scent of marijuana and visible open containers in the car.
During the search, officers found an unserialized 9mm ghost gun along with illicit pills, and their K9 unit alerted them to an additional loaded .40 caliber handgun in the trunk. The driver, Antonio Monter, 27, and front-seat passenger Michael Diaz-Fernandez, 25, face multiple firearm and narcotics charges, while back-seat passenger Aaron Cade, 23, was arrested due to an outstanding felony warrant. This case highlights ongoing concerns regarding untraceable firearms and drug distribution in the area.
