He was arraigned in Justice of the Peace Court 3 and released on his own recognizance.

The front-seat passenger was also taken into custody after police found drug paraphernalia in her purse, according to authorities. At Troop 5, she was charged with two counts of possession of drug paraphernalia. She was arraigned in Justice of the Peace Court 3 and released on her own recognizance.
