POTATO CHIP INCIDENT - Police arrested 52-year-old Billy Edward Willis of Rupert with illegal possession of a firearm.
The complaint says Willis allegedly took a nine-millimeter pistol and began walking to his niece's house in Hines because she stole a bag of his potato chips.
A Greenbrier County sheriff's deputy spotted Willis walking along US 60 toward Hines. Willis allegedly threw something over the guardrail and police found the pistol and a gun case.
Willis had been convicted of second-degree murder in Fayette County in 1979.
He now faces up to five years in prison.
