Chumlee's shocking arrest report
Fox 411: 'Pawn Stars' personality had secret vault full of drugs and guns, report says
Don’t expect to see the live-reaction to Chumlee’s arrest in any upcoming episode of “Pawn Stars.”
FOX411 has learned the show had already wrapped production for this season when Austin “Chumlee” Russell was arrested on suspicion of 20 felonies, including drug-possession and possession of a firearm by a person using or under the influence of a controlled substance.
The report from Russell’s March 9 arrest was made public on Tuesday.
"We will be analyzing what was allegedly found and whether the alleged seizure was lawful in a courtroom, not in the media,” Russell’s attorney David Chesnoff told FOX411 via email. “Austin has great faith in the judicial system as do I and looks forward to a just resolution of the matter."
Russell was arrested when police obtained a search warrant for his home following a March 3 sexual assault complaint. The TV star was not arrested on sexual assault charges, and police have stated that investigation is ongoing.
During the March 9 search, police seized a small arsenal of guns, a gallon plastic bag containing marijuana, multiple doses of anxiety medication and a small amount of methamphetamine at the home of the "Pawn Stars" personality.
Almost 5 ounces of marijuana was found in jars and plastic bags in varying amounts, the report said, including one large Ziploc bag containing more than 4 ounces.
Police said 12 guns were seized, ranging from handguns to a shotgun and assault-style MP5 and .223-caliber rifles. Four of the handguns were registered to Russell, the report said.
Most of the weapons were found in a bedroom vault safe, along with 17 multi-dose "bars" of the anxiety drug Xanax and seven capsules containing small amounts of methamphetamine, police said.
The History Channel declined FOX411’s request for comment regarding Chumlee’s arrest and how it will affect the future of the series.
“Pawn Stars” first aired in July 2009. It features Gold & Silver Pawn owner Rick Harrison, his father and his son, Corey Harrison. Chumlee is a main character on the series who is depicted as the long-time best friend of Corey Harrison. On the show, he works alongside the family in the shop, and he is often the punchline for many of their jokes and jabs.
The Harrisons declined to comment regarding the details of Chumlee’s arrest report.
