The officer conducted a traffic stop and observed unstamped tobacco in the vehicle. The officers safely arrested the driver and only occupant of the vehicle.

As the officer seized the unstamped tobacco products, he located a quantity of cocaine and other items consistent with drug trafficking in the vehicle. These items were also seized by police.
