2. When the property was used as the means of committing a felony, in which case it may be taken, on the warrant, from any house or other place in which it is concealed or may be found, or from the possession of the person by whom it was used in the commission of the offense, or of any other person in whose possession it may be;

3. When the property is in the possession of any person, with the intent to use it as the means of committing a crime, or in the possession of another to whom he may have delivered it, for the purpose of concealing it or preventing its being discovered, in which case it may be taken on the warrant from the possession of such person, or of the person to whom he may have so delivered it, or from any house or other place occupied by them or under their control, or either of them.
