REDLANDS, Calif. (KABC) -- A former Redlands East Valley High School student was arrested for allegedly selling drugs and guns to current students, authorities said.



Manases Flores, 20, of San Bernardino, was taken into custody Monday after authorities served a search warrant at his home where investigators found drugs, a large amount of money, and unregistered firearms.



According to the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department, a resource officer at the school was told Flores was selling marijuana and other narcotics to students.



"Flores was suspected of selling illegal narcotics to minors including vape pens, and illegal firearms," said the sheriff's department in a press release.
