Milpitas Man with Felony Warrant Arrested for Drug Dealing After Routine Traffic Stop

Milpitas Police took to social media, revealing details of an encounter during the graveyard shift. An officer with the intent to issue a simple ticket ended up apprehending the driver for outstanding offenses, including drug sales, child endangerment, and weapons violations.

The suspect’s record wasn’t the only concern. An array of illicit substances and cash were also discovered within his vehicle. A concoction of marijuana and prescription medication, all flanked by a pile of currency, solidified the grounds for his arrest. “Apparently, he didn’t learn his lesson the first time,” commented the Milpitas Police on their

official social media post

, referencing the driver’s negligent attitude towards the law and the basic traffic regulations.

The officers’ intervention served two purposes: executing the $150,000 felony warrant and establishing fresh charges against the driver. These included possession of marijuana and prescription medication with the intent to sell, offenses that stand in contrast to California’s stance on recreational marijuana, which is legalized. However, the intention to distribute such substances still breaches the legal perimeter.

A passenger in the car was also cited for drug charges alongside the main perpetrator.
