A man carrying 50 pounds of pot gummy bears and other marijuana products in a stolen car is now in a custody after being arrested by Atlanta Police this week.

Walter Berryhill, 31, of Forest Park is charged with possession of marijuana with intent to distribute after being arrested Tuesday, July 25,  on Howell Mill Road. He is currently being held at the Fulton County Jail.
