YOUNGSTOWN — Reports said officers Monday found 90 pills inside a car during a traffic stop on the North Side.
Members of the vice squad and the Community Police Unit pulled over a car about 2:20 p.m. driven by Daniel J. Lindsey, 24, of Harmon Avenue, for an improper turn. Reports said a records check showed Lindsey has a suspended license and three open warrants from municipal court.
When asked if he had anything illegal, Lindsey told officers he had some pills in the center console of his car, reports said. Reports said the pills were found in nine separate packs with 10 pills per pack. The pills are Tramadol, an opiate-based painkiller. Police found thousands of the pills in a home last week.
Lindsey was taken into custody on the warrants and for driving under suspension and possession of drugs and booked into the Mahoning County jail.
