While serving a warrant on a man in Killeen, a police officer discovered THC gummies in his vehicle, according to an arrest affidavit.
The officer was patrolling on W.S. Young Drive in Killeen around 8:30 p.m. Feb. 28 when he saw a grey Dodge Challenger he knew belonged to a man named Keyshawn Vincent Price, police said. The officer also reportedly knew that Price had an active warrant.
While searching Price following a traffic stop, the officer found many items, including a labeled package of THC gummies.
The officer tested one of the gummies with a field test kit and it returned with a presumptive positive indication for THC, and it weighed 7.2 grams without packaging.
Bell County Justice of the Peace Nicola James arraigned Price Thursday on a charge of possession of a controlled substance, Penalty Group 2, greater than or equal to 4 grams but less than 400 grams. James set Price’s bond at $35,000.
Also arraigned by James on unrelated cases were:
Larry D. Sanders on two separate charges of possession of a controlled substance, Penalty Group 1/1-B less than 1 gram. James set his total bond at $30,000 ($15,000 per charge).
Audra Nicole Morris on a charge of possession of a controlled substance, Penalty Group 1/1-B equal or greater than 1 gram but less than 4 grams. James set Morris’ bond at $20,000.

Is It is only legal to possess Cannabis sativa (L.), better known as hemp, with a THC concentration of less than 0.3% THC, as determined by dry weight. Possession of any other substance containing THC is still illegal in Texas
Looks as if they have it out for you Keyshawn. Of all the news you made top headlines wow.
I find it quite interesting that this whole fiasco started because that officer targeted this young man I guess it's black while driving here. Secondly did he have a warrant out for his arrest and third from what I understand it is state legal to have a certain amount of marijuana and 7.2 grams is not exactly that. If I were this young man I'd be looking for a pro bono attorney given the circumstances I'm sure you'll find one easily to sue the city and the police department and also at least I forget the individual officer who targeted you with bias
This is ridiculous!
