Caught with Meth in Traffic Stop

(La Porte, IN) - A La Porte woman is still being held today on $20,000 bond after allegedly being caught with a large amount of methamphetamine.

 

Sabrina Lutz, 32, has been accused of having 13.6 grams of methamphetamine in her vehicle during a May 30th traffic stop in the area of New Porte Boulevard and Clear Lake Boulevard in La Porte. According to court documents, she was asked out of the vehicle to allow a K-9 dog to conduct a free air sniff. Acting upon the dog being alerted, officers allegedly located a bag of crystal-like substance later testing positive for methamphetamine between the front seats.

 

The drugs weighed enough for the Possession of Methamphetamine charge to be upgraded to a Level 4 felony, which could bring her anywhere from a 2 to 12-year sentence.
