A 30-year-old Bagley man has been charged in Crawford County Circuit Court with one count of possession of a firearm by a felon and one count of misdemeanor bail jumping.

Dustin R. Hampton, a convicted felon, faces up to $35,000 in fines and 10 years, nine months imprisonment if convicted of both counts.

According to the criminal complaint, on Nov. 25, a Crawford County sheriff’s deputy responded to Bouska Road in the town of Bridgeport for a vehicle that had run out of gas.

Hampton’s driving privileges were suspended and the deputy offered to drive the vehicle to the Walmart parking lot where it could stay until someone could come drive the vehicle and Hampton home.

As the deputy exited the vehicle, he found a green handgun case in the pocket of the driver’s door. A 40-caliber handgun was found in the case, the complaint said. A marijuana smoking device was also found in the vehicle. Hampton admitted to having smoked marijuana within the past day, which was a violation of his bond, according to the complaint.
