Description
1 Defendant Eric Patrick Morales appeals from an order denying his motion to suppress evidence of a gun seized from his person by an officer during an investigatory stop. Defendant challenges the constitutionality of the investigatory stop and detention, asserting that the officers lacked reasonable suspicion because the stop was based on an unreliable tip from an anonymous informant. We reverse on the ground that the anonymous tip lacked sufficient indicia of reliability. The investigatory stop was not constitutional, and the search of Defendants person and seizure of the gun therefore violated Defendants Fourth Amendment rights.
