Inside his car, deputies found:

Munford was taken to the Volusia County Jail and charged with three counts of possession of a weapon/ammunition by a convicted felon, trafficking in fentanyl and possession of narcotics paraphernalia.

Investigators say he will stay in jail on no bond until he is extradited back to Marion County.
