The Fayette County Sheriff’s Office said that if you are going to try to discard your narcotics during a pursuit, make sure it all makes it out of the window.
Sgt. Ryan Meagher attempted to make a traffic stop on a 2004 Toyota Tundra pickup truck this (Wednesday) morning at 12:07am on I-10 West near Mile Marker 670.
The driver did not stop, and continued down the highway.
Meagher said that the driver and the passenger appeared to be throwing what looked like narcotics out of the window.
