Police said they confiscated 13 guns, cocaine, marijuana and prescription pills. The chief said Cooper-Hanlon is a convicted felon and isn't allowed to have weapons.
Residents who live nearby said they're relieved they don't have to worry about children getting their hands on the stash. There are also several schools and churches in the neighborhood.
Police said Cooper-Hanlon was on their radar for about two weeks, after some help from neighbors.
