20-year-old Ke’darius Haynes was observed receiving a large plastic bag of marijuana at the Clarksville Pike Save a Lot on July 17th. Detectives were surveilling the establishment when they noticed a maroon Honda sedan backing up next to a white Toyota, where Haynes was sitting as a passenger. Haynes exited the car and entered the passenger side of the Honda for less than 30 seconds. During this, he had a brief conversation with the driver, was handed a bag of marijuana, and exchanged handshakes before re-entering the Toyota. Detectives followed the Toyota and conducted a traffic stop, during which they detained Haynes and the driver. Officers discovered a two-ounce bag of marijuana inside Haynes’ pants. Officers then located another two-ounce bag of marijuana wedged between the passenger seat and the center console. Under Miranda, Haynes stated he agreed to meet with the individual in the Honda via Instagram to purchase two “zips.” A “zip” is slang for two ounces of marijuana. The total amount of marijuana found was 114.3 grams/4 ounces. Haynes was then taken into custody for possession with intent.
Ke’darius Haynes of Woodstock Drive in Nashville, TN, was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on July 17th, charged with possession with intent to sell. A judicial commissioner set his bond at $2,500, and the Davidson County Sheriff’s Office gave him pre-trial release from their facility.
