A traffic stop by county police Friday morning about 3:30 landed a South Bend man in the Marshall County Jail.
A Marshall County Officer performed a traffic stop in the area of US 31 and 9A Road in Plymouth and found the driver, 31 year old Torance Brown of South Bend to be operating a vehicle on a suspended license.
As the investigation continued it was found that Mr. Brown was in possession of a large amount of synthetic marijuana. He was taken to the Marshall County Jail and held on a $1,500 cash bond.
Listeners and readers are reminded that charging information supported by an affidavit of probable cause is merely an allegation that a crime has been committed and that there is only probable cause to believe a crime has been committed. They are presumed innocent throughout the proceedings and are entitled to be represented by counsel and entitled to a trial by jury at which the State is obligated to provide proof beyond a reasonable doubt before a judgment of guilt may be made.
