19-year-old Dailen Vincent Hairston was speeding in his white Chevrolet Equinox near Peachers Mill Road on May 6th. Officers observed this and conducted a traffic stop, during which they approached the vehicle and noticed it reeked of marijuana. Officers asked Hairston and his passenger, Marcus Averhart, about the smell, and they said they smoked a blunt earlier in the night. During a subsequent search of his car, officers discovered five individual bags with a total of 14.175 grams of marijuana, a digital scale, a glass jar, a plastic bottle, packs of cigar wraps, rolling papers, a loaded Glock 22 .40 caliber handgun, and a loaded Smith & Wesson M&P 9 shield .9mm. Hairston was taken into custody for possession of a firearm during the commission of a dangerous felony, unlawful drug paraphernalia, and simple possession with intent.
