At 9:44 p.m. on Dec. 5, an officer on patrol observed a 1995 Chevrolet S10 pickup, heading north, go through the stop sign at the intersection of Moose Hill and Cross Hill roads without even slowing down, police said.
After stopping the pickup, the officer noticed the driver, Kollmann, had glassy eyes and constricted pupils and was visibly shaking and mumbling, according to police.
Police canine Gunner alerted on the vehicle and officers found an Altoids tin on Kollman, containing a large number of what was later positively identified as prescription medication, the report said.
Officers also found a black film container with a green leafy substance inside — which field tested positive for marijuana, and an orange film container with a brown, pasty substance — which field tested positive for hashish, according to police.
