Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit

1Opinion of the Court
JOHN R. GIBSON, Circuit Judge.
The main issue before us is at what point a show of force by police will elevate an intended investigative stop into an arrest which, in the absence of probable cause, would warrant exclusion of evidence thereby seized as violative of the fourth amendment. The district court 1 denied Tyjuan Jones’ motions to suppress and in limine and allowed the introduction into evidence of the handgun found in the car in which Jones was apprehended. Jones was convicted as a felon in possession of a firearm in violation of 18 U.S.C.App. § 1202(a)(1) (1982). We affirm.
