Officers found a Smith & Wesson .380 caliber handgun when they stopped Michael Johnson, 29, of Linwood in the area of the 1400 block of Kerlin Street on Sunday, Upland Borough police said.
A check of Johnson's records showed he did not have a valid permit to carry a concealed weapon, police said.
Johnson was arrested on weapons offenses and arraigned before MDJ Christopher Mattox.
He was subsequently remanded to George W Hill Correctional Facility after failing to post 10% of $10,000 bail.
Johnson's preliminary hearing before MDJ Georgia Stone is set for May 13.
