Chumlee: INSANE Amount of Drugs & Guns Found in Pawn Star"s Home!
Last week, Austin Russell – the Pawn Stars fan favorite better known as Chumlee – was arrested on drug and gun possession charges after police raided his home while investigating a sexual assault allegation against the 33-year-old.
Now, TMZ has the details on what exactly cops found in Chumlee’s home, and it seems the lovable reality star might be in far worse legal trouble than previously thought.
According to the police report, Chumlee was busted with about 4.5 ounces of pot, 2 grams of meth, and 34 milligrams of Xanax.
The weed was bagged up and stashed in several different places around the house, leading cops to believe Chumlee was dealing.
Russell told police that all of the drugs were for personal use, and he copped to smoking “a lot of weed.”
They also found a plastic bag with white residue that they believe to be cocaine discarded in what was referred to as “the Chum Chum room,” which of course features a stripper pole.
If you’re thinking, “Wow, that’s a lot of freakin’ narcotics to keep in your home,” well, you’re right. But don’t worry – Chumlee knows to protect his stash:
Police say they found 12 firearms in the house, only 4 of which were registered to Chumlee.
Russell has not yet been charged in connection with the sexual assault claims, but police confiscated his bedding and drew his blood to aid in their investigation.

Chumlee: Pawn Stars Favorite Arrested on Drug & Gun Charges
Austin Russell – the reality star better known to fans of TV’s Pawn Stars fans as Chumlee – has been arrested on drug and gun possession charges.
Russell was taken into custody last night after police raided his home in connection with an unrelated sexual assault investigation and discovered the illegal weapons and substances.
In total, Russell is facing 19 charges, as police reportedly found large amounts of meth and marijuana, along with an unspecified number of firearms.
Russell has not been charged in the sexual assault investigation that led to the raid.
An employee of the Gold and Silver Pawn Shop in Las Vegas, Russell is a fan favorite on the long-running History Channel series that began filming there in 2009.
A lifelong friend of shop co-owner Corey Harrison, Russell has often been described as the show’s breakout star due to his comic antics and entertaining interactions with customers.
The 33-year-old is a popular figure on the Internet, and was been the subject of frequent death hoaxes.
This is not the first time that one of the younger members of the show’s cast has had an ugly brush with the law.
In 2014, Corey Harrison was arrested for inciting a brawl and drunkenly urinating on a barstool.
