(a) A peace officer may take into possession any deadly
weapons found in the possession of a person arrested if:

           (i) The peace officer has reason to believe the
weapon will be used to endanger the safety of the officer or the
public; or

          (ii) The person arrested might seek to use the weapon
to resist arrest or to escape.

     (b) Except as otherwise provided in this subsection,

     (c) Deadly weapons seized under this section shall be
returned or disposed of as provided by W.S. 7-2-105 unless
