Deputies also found Hernandez in possession of a semi-automatic pistol along with marijuana and cocaine.

Hernandez was taken to the Bonneville County Jail and booked for the warrants along with new felony charges of drug trafficking, possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver, possession of a controlled substance and misdemeanor charges of possession of drug paraphernalia and resisting arrest.

Analysis of the drugs found on Hernandez showed approximately three grams of Heroin, one gram of Cocaine and 27 grams of Marijuana.

The female victim yelling for help in this incident was not injured and was released at the scene.
