Upon activating the patrol vehicle’s emergency equipment, the suspect vehicle made an abrupt left turn onto Mercer Road. A few moments later, the suspect vehicle left the roadway and attempted to cross a ditch but was unsuccessful. The driver of the suspect vehicle immediately exited and fled from the vehicle on foot.
Within moments of attempting to flee, the Maryland State Trooper who initiated the traffic stop was able to catch, and arrest the suspect without further incident. At the time of arrest, the suspect was carrying a large backpack. Search incident to arrest revealed that the backpack contained 334 grams of marijuana.
The driver was identified as Raymond Warren Mathis, DOB: 4/8/1989 from Eden, Maryland.
Further investigation revealed that just moments prior to the trooper initiating the traffic stop on Eden Allen Road, Raymond Mathis was meeting two individuals at the Eden Shell Gas Station to sell the marijuana.
Upon meeting the two individuals at the gas stations, Mathis told the two victims that he possessed a gun and ordered them into the vehicle. Mathis then unlawfully took the vehicle with the two occupants inside.
The two victims were located inside the vehicle after Mathis was arrested and released from the scene.
Mathis was charged with driving under the influence, possession of marijuana over 10 grams, possession with the intent to distribute, robbery, kidnapping, and auto theft. Mathis was transported to the Somerset County Commissioner where he was remanded to the Somerset County Detention Center to be held without bond.
No money found?????
ReplyDeleteA pound and a half for sale and nobody brought money?
Brush up on your math skills, 334g is almost 12oz. Far cry from 1 1/2 pounds
DeleteMan, even little Eden is not exempt from wrong doings. "Stop and Rob" has anything you need.
ReplyDeleteYes this case sweet ones is bad drugs bad for mind brain drugs drugs rob no. Sniff no say no to drugs dare say no to liberals!
ReplyDeleteJust where is Mathias's MEDICAL drugs when you need them?!
ReplyDeleteWhen did they go to all this "gram" stuff anyway for pot. Back in the day you had an ounce, a dime, etc. No one talked "grams" for pot. Now other things are another story.
ReplyDeleteBut, the pot led to the "other things". And I learned about "grams". I know that as a fact.
No one will tell me pot is not the match that sets the house on fire.
8:12 Kool-aid floods your brain.
DeleteKudos to the trooper
ReplyDeleteHe looks like a little punk that needs slapped
ReplyDeleteSmug
ReplyDeleteNothing worse than a white Thug.
A match sets a house on fire only by the actions of its user.
ReplyDeleteSad.....he could have worked those good looks. I am sure he will be popular in prison
ReplyDeleteScum!! Nothing more ridiculous than today's ghetto rap gansta wanna be white boys. Sorry to tell you your not black
ReplyDeleteIt's "you're not black". Not "your not black". Brush up on your grammar before trying to criticize others homie!!! You're is a contraction for "you are".
DeleteTalk about a classic case of profiling! Nobody gets stopped for a tag light violation unless the police want to stop you and look for something else....guaranteed!
ReplyDeleteHey 10:38, thanks for showing your ignorance to every one. If you knew what you were talking about, you would be scary. For your information, new Troopers, just out of the academy, do not have radar or laser training. Until they get that training, they have to use their knowledge, of the motor vehicle laws, to stop vehicles. Therefore, new Troopers stop vehicles for all types of equipment violations or they "pace" vehicles for speed violations. If you don't know what you're talking about, keep your trap shut and your fingers off the keyboard.
