Deputies conducted a traffic stop on the vehicle and made contact with the driver 24-year-old Carlos Norsworthy. While talking to Norsworthy deputies could smell a strong odor of marijuana coming from the vehicle. The rear passenger 17-year-old Romello Damond Campbell, of Macon along with Norsworthy, was asked about marijuana being in the vehicle. Both denied having any marijuana.
