A traffic stop led to a marijuana citation in Wednesday.

A Salisbury Police officer observed a silver Saturn turn from Short Street onto Long Street. He stopped the vehicle because its registration tags were expired.

During the stop, a K-9 unit indicated there were drugs in the car, so the police searched the car, finding 6.5 grams of marijuana in the console, according to a report.

Philip Andrews Daniels, II was cited for marijuana possession.
