Drug Arrest

At 1:30 a.m., an officer observed an Audi station wagon driving around in seemingly random directions as if they were lost. The officer followed the vehicle and observed a male and female exit the vehicle after parking on a dead end road. The officer saw the male and female backtrack their route on foot, look in both directions on Lincoln Highway and then return to the vehicle. The vehicle then proceeded west on Lincoln Highway. During the observation of the vehicle, there was only one headlight working, no lights on the license plate, and the registration plate on the vehicle came back as no record found. The vehicle was stopped and contact was made with the male and female in the vehicle. The driver, a 21-year-old man, didn’t have his license on him, but did provide his date of birth. A check of his driver’s license found that his license was suspended. While speaking with the man, the officer could detect the odor or suspected marijuana coming from the vehicle. The man gave verbal permission to search the vehicle. Inside the vehicle, officers found suspected marijuana and paraphernalia. The man will be cited via summons to appear in court. His vehicle was towed from the scene and he, along with the female, was released from the scene.
