Suspicious actions by driver during stop prompts call for K9: On 9/21/14 at approximately 2:00 PM, an officer stopped a motorist in the vicinity of N. Willow and Lincoln for not wearing a seatbelt. The driver, identified as Rachel Gosnell, became nervous and emotional during the encounter and confessed to past drug use.

A Sebastian Police Department K9 unit responded and was deployed on the vehicle. The results of that deployment were positive so Gosnell was advised of her rights and questioned. Gosnell admitted to being in possession of a one hitter, manufactured to look like a cigarette.
