Probable Cause Search Leads to Arrest

When a traffic stop was initiated on Main Street, the driver of the vehicle pulled into the Valero Convenience Store located less than 1,000 feet from the Buford Park skate park, a Drug Free Zone. With the smell of marijuana emitting from the vehicle, a probable cause search was conducted and a cloth bag was found in the left rear floorboard.

Inside the bag was located a sealed bag of K1 and two small baggies containing a crystal like substance believed to be methamphetamine. No occupant of the vehicle claimed ownership.

Lafayette Trey Crosby, 21, of Sulphur Springs was arrested for Possession of a Controlled Substance Penalty Group 1, more than 1-gram but less than 4-grams in a Drug Free Zone and for Possession of a Controlled Substance Penalty Group 1-A less than 2 oz. Crosby is in Hopkins County Jail held on bonds totaling $16,000.
