SALISBURY — The Rowan County Sheriff’s Office charged two men with drug possession crimes after finding more than a pound of marijuana and thousands of dollars in cash during a traffic stop.

Cole Alexander Nicholas, 20, faces charged of possessing marijuana with intent to sell and deliver, maintaining a vehicle or dwelling for a controlled substance as well as an outstanding warrant for a 2020 incident in the western Rowan town of Cleveland. Trevon Cordarius Davis, 24, was charged with misdemeanor marijuana possession.

The traffic stop occurred around 11:10 a.m. Wednesday near the intersection of Briggs Road and Goodnight Road when a deputy checked the license plate of a silver Honda Accord and it came back as belonging to Nicholas, who was wanted for felony drug possession, a Rowan County Sheriff’s Office report said.

Deputies told Nicholas they stopped him for the active warrant, found a plastic bag containing a couple grams of marijuana in his pocket and $3,990 in cash also in his possession. Davis was the vehicle’s passenger and was cited for marijuana in a backpack near the vehicle’s back seat.

The largest amount of marijuana was 1.012 pounds vacuum sealed in a plastic bag and covered by a Dollar General bag in the front passenger seat’s floorboard, the Rowan Sheriff’s Office said.

Nicholas was booked into jail with a $1,500 bond for his charges. Davis only received a citation.
