The caller, who was working in the neighborhood, said the males were asking for directions and he observed two of the males coming out of a nearby backyard.
Arriving officers observed the suspect vehicle leaving the community and followed it. The driver of the vehicle committed several traffic infractions and was stopped. Officers made contact with the driver, Jaquan Johnson, and the three passengers, Givante Evans, Brandon Allen and Aquarian Moore. The officer immediately smelled the odor of marijuana emanating from the interior of the car.
