When the four occupants of the vehicle gave conflicting stories, the officer requested a police dog for assistance, Wilrye said. The dog alerted police to the presence of drugs in the vehicle. Officers found a “green leafy substance believed to be marijuana," a large black trash bag with new cell phones in original packaging in the trunk, and a ski mask under the seat.

Around 80 phones were taken from a Best Buy in Morrow the morning of Feb. 6, according to information from the Morrow Police Department. Around 80 phones were recovered during the traffic stop. The phones were to be inventoried and returned to the store.
