Traffic stop leads to drug arrest

Crisp County Sheriff’s Office

On August 1, 2024, around 4:00 P.M., a Crisp County Sheriff’s Deputy attempted to conduct a traffic stop on a silver Chevrolet Monte Carlo for improper stopping after the Deputy witnessed the driver stopping in the middle of the road and not wearing a seatbelt. Initially, the driver failed to stop after the Deputy activated lights and sirens. The car finally stopped after going around the Rosewood Estates subdivision.

A search of the vehicle resulted in the discovery of suspected marijuana, suspected Oxycodone, suspected Adderall, a digital scale, a grinder, and a firearm. Davis was arrested and transported to
