Sheriff's Newsletter: Deputies Play Cat and Mouse with Driver Harboring Drugs

A waiting game between a Dakota County Sheriff's Office deputy and the driver of a suspicious vehicle ended with a meth bust, according to the most recent edition of the Dakota County Sheriff's Newsletter.

Deputy Pat Enderlein, parked near a gas station, noticed one of the customers at the station was stalling for time, and refusing to leave the station until the deputy departed. Enderlein called in assistance, then, to dupe the suspicious man, drove out of the area.

Sure enough, the driver left soon after, and was stopped for having expired tabs on his car. Police searched the vehicle after witnessing the passenger hide something under the front seat. They turned up methamphetamine, Xanax, paraphernalia and burglary tools.
