Officers got a 911 call about potential prostitution with a woman approaching cars at an intersection known for that. It turned out she was significantly older than the person described in the 911 call, but there still was reasonable suspicion for the contact. State v. Doherty, 2026-Ohio-3615 (1st Dist. Sep. 16, 2026).*<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The officer regularly surveilled a gas station where people would congregate but not buy gas. When there was a mass of cars leaving at one time without buying gas, he concluded the drug trade was over and followed defendant\u2019s car. With two traffic violations he stopped it. The fact he had mixed motives for the stop was still reasonable suspicion. State v. Shabazz, 2026-Ohio-3630 (8th Dist. Sep. 17, 2026).*<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The identified informant\u2019s tip that defendant put a stolen gun and license plate in his car was probable cause after the officer confirmed defendant was a felon. United States v. Digsby, 2026 U.S. App. LEXIS 28508 (4th Cir. Sep. 17, 2026).*<\/p>\n\n\n\n
