BURIEN, Wash. — The Burien Police Department (BPD) says a man was found unconscious in a running car near a school on Monday night.

After the man failed a field sobriety test, police say he allegedly admitted to being under the influence of meth and said he built the handgun himself.

Officers say the gun did not have a serial number, and they also seized two loaded magazines as well as around 100 grams of meth.

He was booked for control of a vehicle under the influence, drug possession, and unlawful possession of a firearm, BPD said in a Facebook post.
