A Tampa woman was arrested and charged with possession of cocaine after her son was pulled over for driving without his headlights on. During what is being described as a routine traffic stop, police discovered that 19-year-old Marcell L. Jones was driving without a license. He was issued a traffic ticket for that offense.
During the stop, police claim to have smelled marijuana and that lead to a search of the 19-year-old’s passenger, who just happened to be his mother. During that search police say they found 17 grams of coke in several small bags. She was charged with possession of drug paraphernalia as well and held in lieu of $12,000 bail.
