A Webster Parish Sheriff’s deputy discovered methamphetamine during a traffic stop April 30 on Fire Tower Road, where a woman was found driving with a suspended license, switched tags, and a child in the vehicle, according to an arrest report.
The stop occurred around noon after a deputy observed switched license plates on a vehicle. The tag did not match the vehicle it was displayed on.
The driver, identified as Tiffany Cunningham, 36, of Shongaloo, told the deputy she did not have her driver’s license on her. During the interaction, the deputy noted Cunningham appeared nervous and avoided eye contact.
When asked if she had anything illegal on her, Cunningham reportedly admitted to having methamphetamine concealed in her brassiere. She removed the substance and placed it on the hood of the deputy’s patrol vehicle, according to the report.
Cunningham’s 7-month-old daughter was in the vehicle at the time. The deputy also discovered that Cunningham’s license was suspended and that she had outstanding warrants through the Springhill Police Department.
She was transported and booked on charges of switched tags, driving under suspension, possession of methamphetamine, possession of a controlled dangerous substance in the presence of a minor, and being a fugitive from Springhill.
All subjects are considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
