A Norwood woman has been charged with felony possession of a controlled substance following a traffic stop earlier this week.
According to a probable cause statement filed July 15, Cabool Police Patrolman James Coffman stopped a black Chevrolet on Highway 63 after noticing its plates were expired. During the stop, passenger Mary Parkes told the officer the vehicle’s insurance was also expired. As Parkes stepped out of the car, she dropped a small baggie containing a white crystal‑like substance, which the officer reported appeared to be methamphetamine. The substance later tested positive for methamphetamine.
