While serving the warrant, officers located a large gun safe containing two illegal assault rifles and thousands of rounds of ammunition. The safe belongs to Cody’s father, Aaron Hall, who is a twice convicted felon and is therefore prohibited from possessing any firearms.
Investigators forwarded a case to the Alameda County District Attorney charging Hall with being a felon in possession of firearms and ammunition as well as possession of illegal assault weapons. The DA filed several felony charges and officers obtained a $640,000 arrest warrant for Aaron Hall.
On July 11, 2013, Hall turned himself in and was booked at Santa Rita Jail. He posted bail and was released. Hall is scheduled to be arraigned July 24th
at the Gale/Schenone Hall of Justice in Pleasanton.
