An officer saw a white 1992 Caprice with temporary plates blow a stop sign at 21st and Grove, and followed it to the 1400 block of Oak Park Avenue before signaling to the driver to stop. He stopped but kept inching the Caprice forward, while making furtive motions toward his waist. He was then ordered out of the car for officer safety. The man, William Dixon, 31, a Chicago resident, had a suspended driver's license. While he was being patted down, Dixon stated "I got some weed." During booking, Dixon's pants were found to contain a baggie containing what tested to be marijuana. The pants also yielded two smaller ziplocks, one of which held seed-and-leaf residue along with $796.19 in cash. The car was sniffed by Canine Officer Epo, who alerted for drugs. However, there was no contraband in the car(anymore). Citations included disobeying a stop, not wearing a seatbelt, driving on a suspended license, no insurance, possession of marijuana, and possessing marijuana with intent to deliver.
