According to the Sheriff’s Office Public Information Officer John Mowell, at about 11:54 p.m. Monday, a deputy was patrolling the streets and conducted a routine traffic stop in the 600 block of Verot School Road.Mowell said the deputy questioned the driver who “exhibited behaviors consistent with that of individuals who are trafficking illegal narcortics.” When the deputy asked to search the vehicle, his request was denied, Mowell said.
