Officers searched the vehicle and found a large laundry bag containing 12 pounds of marijuana in the trunk, police said.
Both men were charged with criminal possession of marijuana. Frantz was additionally charged with operating a motor vehicle with suspended registration, driving a motor vehicle on/across a sidewalk, uninsured motor vehicle and not wearing a seatbelt.





Who cares?
Legalize marijuana already.
Our 100 year old war on drugs is lost.
Time to lose with dignity.
Um, Isn’t that the point Justin?
I would never think to drive with a 12lb bag, no registration, no insurance. geeze
