Around 5:07 p.m. on Friday, an Oregon State Police trooper stopped a 1999 Toyota Camry for a lane-change violation while it traveled northbound on Highway 97. As the trooper approached the car, he noticed the passenger, Ali Reza Tabibnejad, 32, of Missoula, Mont., wearing a black beanie cap with the word “Weed” on it.
Subsequent investigation during the traffic stop led the trooper to discover and seize over six pounds of marijuana concealed in the vehicle. Estimated value of the seized marijuana is $15,000.
Tabibnejad was arrested and lodged in the Deschutes County Jail for unlawful possession and delivery of a controlled substance.
