DAYTON, Ohio (WDTN) - When U.S. Marshals tracked down and arrested a wanted man Monday, they found him hiding in house filled with guns.

Members of the Sofast Task Force said 31-year-old Tony Griffin had a warrant out for violating his probation on weapons charges, and were not shocked to see all the firepower.

"We had information prior to this there was guns inside, so anytime we approach we use the utmost caution," said Marshal Chad Simpson.

The list of weapons discovered inside the 631 Dearborn Avenue house included a pistol, a revolver, four rifles, and a sawed off shotgun.

They also found crack cocaine.
