The driver alerted the authorities, and they were dispatched to Hamilton Crossings near A Harris Dental, where they located the vehicle and conducted a felony stop. Everyone in the car was detained, and during a frisk for weapons, officers located a tan P80 9mm Pistol and over two ounces of marijuana, 66.7 grams. The marijuana was packaged separately in one large container and other small ones, which were in a camouflage backpack in the third row of the vehicle, where Johnson was sitting. Everyone inside the car was Mirandized, during which none of them claimed ownership of the bag and stated they did not know whose it was.

27-year-old Holden Wendt Parker, a Full Stack Salesforce Developer, was in the passenger seat when officers responded to a call regarding a man lying in the roadway near James Robertson Parkway and Rosa Parks Avenue on the night of March 22nd. When officers arrived, they located the unresponsive male and administered him Narcan. Officers observed Parker parked in his vehicle near the incident, approached him, and noticed he had white residue around his nose as if he had just taken a substance, exhibiting signs of impairment. Parker refused medical attention and then was detained due to his level of intoxication. Since his car was being left in a private lot, officers did an inventory search. Officers located six grams of Methamphetamine, a black pipe next to fentanyl test strips, dollars, a scale, and multiple small bags, all of which had residue on them. Then, the other person with Parker admitted to taking an opioid. Parker was taken into custody for three counts of unlawful use of drug paraphernalia, public intoxication, possession of fentanyl with intent, and possession of Schedule II drugs with intent.
