While on patrol Wednesday, June 12th, Detective Brian Taylor observed the driver of a Honda Accord make a traffic violation. Upon making initial contact with the driver, he noticed the smell of marijuana coming from inside the vehicle.
While he was speaking with the driver and passenger, an investigator from the Humboldt County District Attorney’s Office Canine Unit was in the immediate area for another assignment. Because the officer smelled marijuana during the traffic stop, the canine was requested and immediately signaled that it sensed the presence of illegal narcotics.
During a subsequent search, two packages were located in a duffle bag in the back seat area of the car which was determined to contain 2 pounds of methamphetamine.
The driver, 18-year-old, Angelica Carrillo Villalobos of Fortuna was interviewed and released at the scene.
Her passenger, 23-year-old, Miguel Carrillo Villalobos of Fortuna was arrested for Transportation for Sale of a Controlled Substance. He was transported and booked into the Humboldt County Correctional Facility.
