On August 19th, 2025, an officer on patrol witnessed a vehicle blow through a red light. However, the traffic stop that followed took an unexpected turn. Here's what happened. >> Hello. >> Hello, >> Officer M. This is Hot Springs Police Department. So, I've stopped you for a couple reasons. One shows you don't have insurance on the vehicle and you stopped at the red light and then you ran through it. >> How did I stop and run through it? >> You stopped and then you ran through it while it was still red. >> It lit up green. >> No, it did not.

That's all it is. There's no rush on either side. The suspect is being careful, even a bit nervous. But the officer remains patient while she searches for her license and proof of insurance. A little more light. >> Thank you. >> There it is. [music] That's This is what I hear. >> Okay. Sorry. >> Yeah. I'm pulled over.

The officer smells a strong odor of a controlled substance coming from inside the vehicle. And without a valid card, that gives him enough reason to investigate further. >> So, quick question for you. You have a medical card? Um, no. But I did smoke before I left. >> Okay. >> I'm sorry. You >> mind if I search your vehicle? Yeah, I can smell it. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> All right. Don't reach for anything.

All right. Let's go ahead and your seat belt for me. >> To the officer's surprise, she doesn't hesitate. She agrees to the search without protest, making the next steps go a lot smoother.
