Placer County Sheriff's Deputy Finds Heroin During Traffic Stop In Penryn
PENRYN (CBS13) - A traffic stop in Penryn led deputies to a stash of heroin.
On January 13 at 8 p.m., a Placer County Sheriff's Office deputy stopped a vehicle on Boyington Road. The deputy talked with the driver, 33-year-old Whitney Ross, of Auburn. The passenger of the vehicle was on probation, so the deputy was able to search the vehicle and reportedly found two glass smoking pipes and a box that contained 24 grams of heroin, a scale, multiple zip-lock baggies, and a large amount of cash, according to a Placer County Sheriff's Office statement.
Ross was arrested for possession and transportation of heroin for sale and possession of drug paraphernalia.
