Officers stopped a vehicle on Route 30 near North Thompson Lane for improper lights and excessive window tint and identified the driver as Kylie Anne Vargo, 24, of Turtle Creek. The smell of burnt marijuana led to a search that revealed an aftermarket void with two concealed boxes containing 16 bricks of suspected heroin/fentanyl, a bag of suspected crack cocaine, multiple digital scales (one disguised as a key fob) and six doses of Suboxone; Vargo faces narcotics-related charges including manufacture/delivery or possession with intent to manufacture and possession of drug paraphernalia. All charges are accusations and the defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty.
