Bridgeport police say they found an illegal gun in a man's car when he was stopped for failure to obey a stop sign Tuesday night.

They say 26-year-old Eric Guillermo Goicochea, of Manchester, did not possess a pistol permit. They also say the vehicle was unregistered and that the license plate affixed to the vehicle belonged to another car.

Police say a loaded Glock firearm with an altered serial number and two loaded magazines were recovered from the vehicle.

Goicochea's bail is $75,000.
