BOISE, Idaho, Dec. 11, 2018 (Gephardt Daily) — A 51-year-old Roy man has been arrested near Boise after a traffic stop led to felony trafficking charges.

The suspect, Navor Bustos, was stopped on Interstate 84 near Boise on Friday, and officers discovered about two pounds of marijuana in his possession. A statement by the Ada County Sheriff’s office said deputies also found about eight ounces of hash oil — a concentrated form of THC found in marijuana, and a pound of Kief — a concentrated dried form of marijuana resin, in the trunk of the car.”

Deputies pulled Bustos over for turn signal violations while he was driving eastbound on I-84, near the Eisenman Road exit, just before noon on Friday,” the statement says. “It was during that investigation deputies determined Bustos, who is from Roy, Utah, was driving without a valid license.”

“Bustos then told deputies he was carrying a handgun. When deputies were searching Bustos for more weapons, they found a syringe in his pocket. That led to a search of the car, where a K-9 drug-sniffing dog found the drugs in the trunk.”

Bustos was booked into the Ada County Jail and arrested on a felony trafficking charge.

The crime of trafficking in marijuana is punishable by up to 15 years in prison, with a mandatory minimum sentence of three years in prison, the Ada County Sheriff’s statement says.
