The incident occurred Monday May 23, 2016 around 9:30 p.m. as a trooper on patrol in the area of Woodside East observed a teal Ford Ranger fail to signal its intentions before turning northbound onto Peachtree Run from westbound Millchop Lane. A traffic stop was conducted on the truck and contact was made with the operator, identified as Robert E. Farkas, 35 of Dover, and a front seat passenger,Matthew R. Kerr, 24 of Dover. When the trooper conducted a computer inquiry into Farkas’ driver’s license, it was determined he was driving suspended and had two capiases out of Kent County courts. As Farkas was informed to exit the vehicle, Matthew Kerr exited the driver’s side and began to flee on foot. He was apprehended shortly thereafter without further incident by another trooper that arrived to assist with the traffic stop. Kerr was found to be in possession of 215 bags of heroin with a total weight of 3.225 grams and a computer inquiry revealed he had three capiases out of Kent County courts.
Upon conducting a search of Farkas, it was determined he was in possession of metal pipe commonly used to smoke crack cocaine and .32 grams of marijuana. A search of the car revealed a large fixed blade knife in the center console.
Both occupants were transported back to Troop 3 where Robert Farkas was charged with Carrying a Concealed Deadly Weapon, Possession of Drug Paraphernalia, Driving While Suspended or Revoked, Possession of Marijuana, and other traffic related offenses. He was arraigned at JP7 and committed to Sussex Correctional Institution on $3,900.00 bond.
Matthew Kerr was charged with Possession with Intent to Deliver Heroin, Possession of Heroin, Carrying a Concealed Deadly Weapon, Resisting Arrest, and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia. He was arraigned at JP7 and committed to Sussex Correctional Institution on $24,500.00 secured bond.

NOOOOOOOO! Say it isn't so, they got the M&M's!!!! Holy Cow! That is one sweet tooth of the streets.
Dear Wicomico County Task Force please read Joes blog so you can see what heroin looks like. Also contact Delaware they can give you pointers on how to make a big bust.
Whats up with Delaware. The heroin capital of the world.
They should be given 20 year sentences for distribution. No chance of early parole. They are running a business that deals in death. Make it known to all dealers that they will be thrown in a cell until they rot when caught.
Get a lawyer. Maryland law does NOT require the use of turn signals. Motorists are ENCOURAGED to use them, and it is RECOMMENDED that they be used at all times, but police CANNOT pull you over for that alone.
It is NOT a violation of any law!

You're an idiot for two reasons
1. This happened in Delaware
2. Maryland traffic article 21-604. Turn signals ARE required
Look at all the heroin in princess anne md can give first names of dealers who sold it to my friends relatives and they died and the cops know and never picked them up for questioning but I will stay on first name Eric (nickname=E),Troy (nickname Outlaw),James (Pee Wee)The deaths Lanel, Richard, Chucky, and responsible for overdoses out greenwood.
Stopped for failing to signal intentions?
Just an excuse to stop and search. They already knew what was going on with these guys either by informant or by using an illegal stingray cell phone tracker
6:41....you nailed it.
They were set up and that's why the second cop was on the scene so quickly.
The "turn signal" was the "probable cause".
