A man in Washington, D.C., was pulled over outside the Pentagon for using a cellphone while driving and is now facing possible prison time after cops allegedly found a loaded Glock handgun on him and a “selector switch” in his underwear — rendering the weapon “fully automatic” — along with 14 pounds of marijuana, according to federal prosecutors.

Kaleel Nagbe was arrested on Dec. 7 for the gun and alleged pot stash after an officer for the Pentagon Force Protection Agency pulled over a black Mercedes A220 4MATIC because Nagbe was on his cellphone while driving, according to his arrest affidavit, which was viewed by Law&Crime Monday.

Using a “handheld communication device” while driving a motor vehicle is a violation of Virginia state law. “While conducting the traffic stop, officers on scene could smell the odor of marijuana coming from the vehicle,” the document says. “When officers asked Nagbe to exit the vehicle to conduct a probable cause search for marijuana, Nagbe exited and began questioning officers.”

Upon being questioned, Nagbe allegedly “became nervous and fidgety” before reentering his car and attempting to flee “with officers hanging onto the vehicle,” the affidavit says.

The vehicle ultimately was stopped and Nagbe was detained — with it taking three officers to do so as Nagbe was “physically resisting,” the affidavit says. “One officer injured his hand in this altercation and was transferred to the hospital to receive medical attention,” documents stated.

A search of Nagbe’s car turned up the loaded Glock, which had 16 rounds in its magazine, including “an extra round in the chamber,” according to prosecutors. “The magazine was loaded with ten full metal jacket 9mm bullets, one frangible 9mm bullet, and six 9mm hollow point bullets,” the affidavit says. The selector switch was allegedly pulled from Nagbe’s underwear.

Nagbe allegedly changed his story at least twice during questioning, claiming he did not know the gun was inside his vehicle and that it belonged to his father, as did the Mercedes, prosecutors said.

“He stated that once he noticed the officers’ emergency lighting equipment behind him, he opened the center console of the Mercedes to look for his license and discovered the firearm,” the affidavit says. “He then retrieved the firearm and hid it to avoid getting his father in trouble. When Nagbe was questioned by officers concerning the vehicle he stated the Mercedes belonged to his father’s company, KMN Real Estate.”

Nagbe, who has a prior gun conviction from 2023 and other charges on his record, is not accused of wanting to use the Glock he was allegedly caught with, only that he was illegally in possession of it as a convict, as well as the marijuana.

Nagbe is scheduled to appear in federal court on Wednesday afternoon.
