A stolen weapon

allegedly used in a Cobb County murder on July 24 was turned up by Peachtree

City Police Monday evening as they assisted Cobb authorities with the

investigation.

The weapon

was recovered after police spoke with Troy A. Serapion at his residence

in the Twiggs Corner Condominiums, police said. Cobb police had tracked

the weapon's last location to Peachtree City, where it had been reported

stolen, police said.

the murder were unavailable at press time Tuesday.

As police executed

a search warrant at Serapion's residence, they found suspected methamphetamine

and other items commonly used in the sale of illegal narcotics, police

said.

Serapion was

arrested for theft by receiving stolen property and possession of methamphetamine

with intent to distribute.
