A Parsons Traffic stop leads to the seizure of illegal drugs.

 

Parsons Police conducted a traffic stop on Tuesday evening in the 1500 block of Broadway after observing a vehicle with an illegal window tint. During the stop, officers observe a glass pipe commonly associated with methamphetamine use in plain sight within the vehicle. A subsequent search yielded additional items, including multiple glass pipes with crystalline residue, a medicine bottle containing a white substance, drug paraphernalia consistent with distribution, and a machete located in the truck bed.

 

The driver of the truck was identified as 44-year-old Travis Wilson and was placed under arrest. At the time of his arrest, Wilson was on probation in Labette County. Due to his probation status, a search was conducted of his residence. The search revealed additional paraphernalia, including a digital scale with residue and dozens of clean plastic baggies believed to be used in distribution. These items have been sent to the Kansas Bureau of Investigation Lab for testing.
