Traffic stop turned marijuana arrest
A UAPD officer responded to assist a Tucson Police Department officer on a traffic stop in the area of Sixth Street and South Santa Rita Avenue at 10:58 p.m. on Aug. 26.
The TPD officer informed the UAPD officer he conducted a traffic stop on a gray, new model, four door BMW for not having a license plate.
He located a small bag of suspected marijuana under the driver seat and a glass smoking bong under the passenger seat with suspected marijuana residue.
He spoke to the two male passengers separately and both admitted they knew the marijuana and bong were in the car. They said they planned on smoking it after they ate.
The driver said the marijuana was his roommate’s and he had smoked from the bag earlier that day without the car passenger.
The passenger originally told the TPD officer the marijuana and bong belonged to the driver but later said he didn’t know who it belonged to.
The driver was not handcuffed when he spoke with the TPD officer in the back seat of his police car. He took full responsibility for the marijuana and bong and both men allowed TPD and UAPD officers to search their sides of their rooms and community area at Coronado Residence Hall.
Both men were cited and released for possession of marijuana and possession of narcotic paraphernalia, and both agreed to meet the officers at Tyndall Parking Garage after they parked the BMW.
The officers and men went to Coronado and explained the situation to resident assistants, who met them at the room.
The driver’s roommate wasn’t there and no phone number was given.
The officers conducted searches of the driver’s room and passenger’s room without finding any contraband or paraphernalia.
The officers thanked the men for their cooperation.
TPD and UAPD case numbers were given to the RAs and a Code of Conduct violation on both men was forwarded to the Dean of Students Office.
