A convicted felon and man who faces an attempted murder charge were arrested Thursday night following a disturbance call on Old Farm Road.

Sergeant Mike Moseley of the Roanoke Rapids Police Department was dispatched to 201 Old Farm Road around 8:30 p.m. following a report of a man waving a handgun.

Lieutenant P.W. Parks also arrived and saw a vehicle leaving the area.

The front seat passenger, according to Captain Andy Jackson, reportedly had a .40-caliber magazine in his front pocket. The driver of the car reportedly admitted he had a weapon in the car.
