Opinion
June 23, 1954.
Appeal from the Circuit Court of Laurel County, Ray C. Lewis, J.
Cam Mullins, London, for appellant.
J. D. Buckman, Jr., Atty. Gen., Wm. F. Simpson, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellee.
Chester Elza has appealed from a judgment sentencing him to two years in the state reformatory for carrying concealed a deadly weapon. KRS 435.230.
It is established by the evidence that the weapon in question was being carried in the glove compartment of defendant's automobile.
We held in Williams v. Commonwealth, Ky., 261 S.W.2d 807, that it is not a violation of KRS 435.230 to carry a weapon in the glove compartment of an automobile. That case is controlling here.
The judgment is reversed.
