At 4:25, Officer Fisher with the Plymouth Police Department conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle whose license plate was found to be false and fictitious.
The vehicle pulled over, and during the stop, the officer smelled a strong odor of marijuana coming from the vehicle. K9 Officer Vinson and his partner Castor arrived on scene and did a free air sniff, and Castor alerted on the vehicle for possible narcotics. A vehicle search was done, and there were 28 grams of marijuana located in the vehicle.
The driver, Amber Pittman, 41, of Knox, told officers that she didn't have insurance on the vehicle.

She was transported to Marshall County Jail, where she was booked in for possession of marijuana and no insurance with a prior conviction.
