A South Carolina man was arrested last week by the Banks County Sheriff’s Office after being stopped because the windows of his vehicle were too dark.
Kenyatte Richard Pixley, 31, 207 Chestfield Road, Greenville, S.C., was charged with driving while license suspended.
A drug dog was with the Banks County deputy who pulled over Pixley and he “alerted” to something suspicious in the car, according to Sheriff Charles Chapman. A search of the car revealed $14,000 in cash in suspected drug money. Sheriff Chapman said the money was folded into different increments and wrapped in paper.
Chapman also pointed out that when money is passed from person to person, the odor of drugs stays on it.
