A twenty-four-year-old woman was arrested by the Chattooga County Sheriff’s Department shortly after 5 AM, on Tuesday of last week after a traffic stop in the early morning hours on Highway 27 near the Trion wastewater treatment plant.

According to a report released yesterday, deputies performed a traffic stop and noticed the smell of marijuana inside the vehicle.  The driver admitted to having smoked marijuana earlier.  The driver told the deputies that she didn’t trust police and that she did not want a man pat searching her.  The deputies reassured the driver that they would not harm her and that a female deputy would provide the pat-down.

The pat-down turned up suspected methamphetamine and marijuana along with a glass pipe.

Talyonna Tibbs was arrested and charged with possession of methamphetamine and possession of drug-related objects and was booked into the Chattooga County Jail.
