Stopping a gray Chrysler Town & Country minivan for traveling too closely to a tractor-trailer at less than one car length, Tennessee Highway Patrol Trooper Billy Cutshall spoke with the driver, Terrance Michael Horne, 28, New Orleans, who told police that he was traveling from Louisiana to New York to purchase a school bus, according to the arrest report.
 

Cutshall wrote that he smelled marijuana in the vehicle, and Horne told the trooper the van contained "just about a blunt left" of marijuana, Cutshall wrote.

During a search of the van, police found a bag of a leafy substance believed to be marijuana inside a sock and a grinder in the rear floorboard, according to the report. Police also located a camouflage backpack in the cargo area containing a Mason jar with two more bags of the substance, according to the report.
 

"I asked him which bag belonged to him and he said that the camouflage backpack was his," Cutshall wrote.
 

Horne told the trooper that the marijuana in the sock was also his, along with a Ruger 9mm handgun that was found under a mattress, according to the report.
