AMENDED MEMORANDUM

Benjamin Grote (“Grote”) appeals his conviction for possession of an unregistered firearm in violation of 26 U.S.C. § 5861(d). Grote contends that the district court erred when it denied his Fourth Amendment motion to suppress evidence seized from his truck and mobile home. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We find no merit in Grote’s contentions, and affirm.

I. The Search of Grote’s Vehicle

The officers’ search of Grote’s vehicle was permissible as a search incident to arrest under Arizona v. Gant, — U.S. -, 129 S.Ct. 1710, 1719, 173 L.Ed.2d 485 (2009), because it was “ ‘reasonable to believe evidence relevant to the crime of arrest might be found in the vehicle.’ ” Id. (quoting Thornton v. United States, 541 U.S. 615, 632, 124 S.Ct. 2127, 158 L.Ed.2d 905 (2004) (Scalia, J., concurring)). It was reasonable to believe that the car might contain one or more bottles of open liquor or drugs. Because officers had reasonable belief that the car contained evidence relevant to a DUI, they could legally search the entire passenger compartment under Gant. See id. There was no need for officers to limit their search to the brown paper bag. (“[t]he offense of arrest will supply a basis for searching the passenger compartment of an arrestee’s vehicle and any containers therein.”) (emphasis added).

II. The Search of Grote’s Mobile Home

Grote contends his consent to search the trailer in which he lived was tainted by officers’ exclusion of Grote from the trailer. Under the balancing test in Illinois v. McArthur, 531 U.S. 326, 331-32, 121 S.Ct. 946, 148 L.Ed.2d 838 (2001), the officers’ warrantless seizure of Grote’s trailer was reasonable. Because the officers found a .223 caliber magazine — but no .223 rifle — in Grote’s truck the day before, there was probable cause to believe Grote’s trailer contained an illegal firearm, and thus, evidence of a crime or contraband. Excluding Grote from the trailer was less intrusive than searching the trailer without a warrant. Grote was excluded from the trailer for only ten minutes before he decided to “get this over with” and consented to a search. And during Grote’s short exclusion from his trailer, a police officer was diligently working on obtaining a warrant. Because the warrantless seizure of Grote’s residence was reasonable, Grote’s consent to the search was also valid.

AFFIRMED.
