During the investigation, a probable cause search of the vehicle was completed and the officer located multiple THC vape cartridges, as well as THC edibles, and approximately 140 grams of suspected marijuana.
The driver, 38-year-old Starlyn M. Abel of Indianapolis, was taken into custody and transported to the Marshall County Jail for possession of marijuana. He was held on a $500 cash bond.
