Video: Police Find Loaded AR-15 in Florida Football Player's Car During Traffic Stop

The Gainesville Police Department released body cam footage on Wednesday that shows officers pulling over Florida wide receiver Kadarius Toney for a seatbelt violation on July 22. During the stop, police discovered a loaded AR-15 in the backseat of the sophomore's car.

Initially handcuffed for safety reasons due to the presence of a weapon in the vehicle, police eventually released Toney on the scene after officers determined that because the weapon was in the backseat of the car and not concealed on his person, Toney did not violate Florida's open-carry law, per Matt Baker of the Tampa Bay Times.
