Large amount of marijuana found

 

 

A 28-year-old Miami man was arrested Monday following a traffic stop after more than three pounds of marijuana was found in the vehicle.

 

Peter James Stansky was charged with possession of marijuana, possession of marijuana with intent to sell, possession of synthetic marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.

 

Stansky was stopped while driving a pickup truck with no working tag lights on U.S. 1 near Mile Marker 8 at approximately 7:35 p.m. He was also found to have no valid driver’s license.

 

A strong odor of marijuana was emitting from the vehicle. A search turned up approximately 3.2 pounds of marijuana in more than 20 separately wrapped bags as well as multiple pipes and a vape pen.

 

Stansky was taken to jail.
