Polk County Police arrested a Marietta pair – one on a warrant, another after drugs were found – during a Tuesday evening traffic stop, per reports.

Alan Ray Curtis, 48, and Cheryl Lynn Whitlow, 58, both of the same Marietta address, were taken into custody by Polk County Police on November 1 after being stopped around 8:45 p.m.

Per the report, police found the pair on Clarkwood Road while on patrol and found the Acura they were driving had no active insurance on record and a suspended tag for Whitlow’s car.

Police pulled over the pair near the intersection of Prospect Road and Highway 278, and let them know about the reasons for the stop and asked for additional information.

When the reporting officer received word that Curtis had a suspended license for failure to pay child support, and backup was called.

Officers took Curtis into custody for the warrant, and because no insurance or registration information could be provided officers called out a wrecker to tow the vehicle away.

Whitlow was allowed to gather her bags from the car, and while police were conducting an inventory before the wrecker took the car the found a cigarette pack with marijuana inside after smelling the drug inside the car.

Curtis took responsibility for the weed, but it did give officers the opportunity to search everyone’s belongings via probable cause. Whitlow’s bags were searched, and within a zippered pouch police found bags of methamphetamine, Gabapentin pills in a prescription bottle for another person, a pipe with a lot of methamphetamine residue, and a digital scale.

Both were taken to the Polk County Jail and booked without further incident.

Whitlow remained in custody as of this posting on a $9,000 bond on a felony charge of possession of methamphetamine, and misdemeanor charges of possession and use of drug-related objects, dangerous drugs, drugs not in original container, and permitting and unlicensed person to drive.

Curtis was being held without bond set for the warrant out of Carroll County. No additional charges were listed at this time for marijuana possession.
