An officer saw a red 1998 Dodge pickup truck exit a store parking lot at Ogden and Clarence, then abruptly enter eastbound Ogden traffic in the 6900 block, causing drivers of other eastbound vehicles to slam on their brakes to avoid an accident. The driver, 22-year-old Angel Garcia of Cicero, stated he has a suspended driver's license and no insurance. An inventory of his truck recovered a clear plastic bag of marijuana from the rear passenger seat and another such bag in the driver door compartment, totalling .20 grams. He was cited for failure to yield while merging, driving on a suspended license and no proof of insurance. He was also ticked for the pot possession and got a $200 fine.
