Marijuana discovered during traffic stop

The driver of a car initially stopped due to a defective taillight was charged with possession of marijuana after a vehicle search Wednesday night.

Michelle Lynn Andrus, 21, Shelbyville Mills Road, was stopped by Officer David Curley in the parking lot of a Madison Street bar, As a computer check showed her license had been revoked for DUI, Andrus allegedly told a waitress who was checking on the commotion that she would "have to be arrested for DUI."

Andrus failed field sobriety tests, Curley said, and what he described as a "small, partially hand-rolled cigarette containing a leafy green substance" was found in the car's glove box.

Charges of possession of a schedule VI drug, DUI and driving on a revoked license were filed against Andrus.
