When officers detected a strong odor of marijuana, a search was initiated on the vehicle.

Reports said police located multiple items, including several pounds of marijuana, approximately 100 grams of cocaine, the hallucinogenic drug LSD, along with money believed to be proceeds of illegal drug sales.

O’Neal was taken into custody on charges that included trafficking in marijuana, cocaine, codeine, and LSD, along with speeding over 26 miles-per-hour.
