29-year-old Clarence Wilson had drugs concealed in his luggage at the Nashville International Airport on July 11th. Detective Swisher deployed his narcotics detection K-9, Peggy, on a run of luggage from Spirit Flight 119. Peggy then gave a positive indication to a grey hard-sided “SWISS” suitcase with the tag name “WILSON/CLARENCE.” Once the bag was claimed, investigators approached Wilson, who consented to a search of his bag. During the search, officers discovered he had 14 vacuum-sealed bundles of marijuana, wrapped in numerous sweatshirts inside a large blanket with scented car fresheners, totaling 8,164.65 grams. When officers asked Wilson for his identification, he attempted to flee, disregarding their commands to stop. Officers also searched Wilson’s carry-on bag, where they found six 1-gram containers of THC wax and 2.5 28-gram packages of marijuana. Wilson was then taken into custody for evading arrest and possession with intent.
