Police say they pulled 20-year-old Gilbert Phelps over for speeding a week ago Wednesday when they smelled something coming from the car.

They say Phelps admitted to smoking marijuana.

In the complaint, the arresting officer wrote, "During the testing process the defendant requested to take a Snapchat selfie with me to which I happily obliged."

He apparently captioned the photo with Emoji's showing a police car, passenger car and a tow truck.
