Moss
A Minden man found himself under arrest on a felony drug charge when police learned it was his second offense.
Casey R. Moss, 19, of the 100 block of Marshall Street, was arrested Monday, May 18, and charged with possession of Schedule I CDS (marijuana), second offense. Bond was set at $1,500.
Police Chief Steve Cropper says Lt. Wayne Young discovered an unsecured, unoccupied vehicle in the back parking lot of a local pizza restaurant while on patrol.
“The windows were down on the vehicle, so he went to check out the vehicle,” he said, “and at that point in time, he observed a small bag of suspected marijuana in plain sight on the console between the two front seats. About that time, a male exited the back of the restaurant and he advised it was his vehicle.”
Cropper says Young questioned Moss about the small bag, and Moss went to the vehicle, retrieved the suspected marijuana and
handed it to the officer. Moss was placed under arrest and when a background check was conducted, officers learned the teen had a prior offense for marijuana possession, which makes it a felony, the chief says.
Moss was transported to the Minden Police Station for booking and transferred to Bayou Dorcheat Correctional Center.

Employees vehicle sitting on parking lot with windows down so a cop decides to ” just check it out”……I call BS on that story!!!
Sounds very “fishy”!! WHY would you even notice the vehicle at a business that was still open? Somethings not right with this picture!!!
The boy is 19 years old, let him go.
another person going to jail 4 pot ! let it go,,
maybe he should have not brought his bag of weed to work. It is illegal to have it, and until that changes, you will be arrested if found in your possession.
This makes me sick!! This boy has had a tough life and recently lost almost all of his loved ones he’s no felon and leave it to Minden to put it in the paper like it’s important “news”!!!!
Yeah…… Right.
I know this guy very well and he isn’t a criminal he is actually one of the most respectful and nicest guys you will meet in your life. Considering everything this kids been through you would understand why he had a baggy of weed. just saying.
Fishy sounding to me as well…why did the police even look into his car?
