Deputy Meyer approached the vehicle and contacted the driver, who was identified as Christopher Byron Morgan, 23, of White Plains. As Deputy Meyer was speaking with Morgan, Meyer observed that Morgan appeared to have a thick brown film covering much of his lower lip (which is indicative of someone recently smoking crack cocaine). Morgan produced his driver's license and then tucked both hands between his legs as if he was attempting to concern something. For officer's safety, Deputy Meyers asked Morgan to place his hand where Deputy Meyer could observe them. Morgan did not comply and turned his left shoulder inward towards the vehicle's front passenger seat as if he was trying to conceal something he was holding in his hand. As Morgan moved, Deputy Meyer observed a glass cylindrical pipe with a brass filter and burn markings. Deputy Meyer recognized the pipe to be a smoking device for controlled dangerous substances. Morgan was arrested. Search incident to the arrest revealed small rock of suspected crack cocaine and five white rectangular shaped prescription pills later identified as methadone.

The registration was listed to a 1985 Dodge truck. The deputies stopped the vehicle and identified the driver as Evelyn Virginia Dean, 37, of Lexington Park. A wanted check on Dean revealed she had an open warrant for her arrest and she was arrested. A search incident to the arrest revealed controlled dangerous substance paraphernalia on Dean's person.
