Upon contact the driver admitted he was suspended and he was the subject of an outstanding warrant issued by Marion County Circuit Court. I confirmed the warrant (CR2068640) which was issued for Fail to Appear on the original crime of Possession of Heroin. Upon second I contact I observed the driver was concealing a container between his left leg and the driver’s door. The driver consented to a search of this container and I located a user’s quantity of heroin and other drug paraphernalia.
