Marijuana found as pursued driver disappears

Posted

A marijuana blunt containing 2 ounces was confiscated from a vehicle abandoned after a short pursuit by police Friday night.  

Officer Garrett Stephens saw the vehicle being driven without lights on Lane Parkway at 8:53 p.m.  

The driver allegedly refused to stop for blue lights and sped away out West Lane Street, with Stephens briefly giving chase before terminating the pursuit due to safety concerns.  

A state trooper saw the unoccupied car moments later parked at the intersection of Cedar Grove and Oakdale streets.  

  • A small bag of marijuana was confiscated from Jennifer Lynn Smith, 45, of Madison Street after it was found by police in her car Sunday afternoon. Police were checking a report of a suspicious person at the end of Shapard Street, Smith was charged with possession of a schedule VI drug and paraphernalia and held on $750 bond.
