Two Greensboro women were arrested Saturday night on marijuana charges following a traffic stop on the Jackson Bypass Road.

Detective Lieutenant Brenda Burnette of the Northampton County Sheriff’s Office said Detective Sergeant Courtney Williams observed a Honda Accord with no license tags and stopped the vehicle.

He called Deputy Kelvin Wright to assist and the two smelled what appeared to be marijuana coming from the vehicle.

The officers found two bags of marijuana in a cup holder and another 14 bags in a tote allegedly belonging to the passenger of the vehicle.

The officers also noticed a 30-day tag in the rear window that appeared to be altered, Burnette said. The tags did not match the car and it was discovered it had been printed off the Internet.

Bost

The driver, 21-year-old Ashawana Bost, was charged with possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia. She was also cited for driving while license revoked, fictitious registration, no insurance and license plate not properly attached. She was given a $300 secured bond and has a January 24 probable cause hearing.

Champion

The passenger, Shaquida Champion, was charged with possession with intent to sell and deliver marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.

She was jailed on $1,500 secured bond and has an October 25 court date.
