CLEVELAND (WJW) – The FOX 8 I-Team has found investigators tracked down a wanted man and they discovered much more — a stash of powerful guns.

One suspect, Rahim Stubblefield, 19, was arrested and charged. He is facing several charges, including aggravated murder. He could also be facing federal gun charges.
