Sheriff Hawthorne reports that on June 4 at approximately 11:00 a.m., Deputy Cody Burk conducted a traffic stop near the 807 eastbound mile marker of Interstate 10, Wallisville, Texas, on a 2016 Nissan Sentra for traffic violations. The driver of the vehicle, identified as Lisa Elizabeth Lewis, 46, of Hankamer, Texas, had illegal drugs in plain view on the front seat. A probable cause search of the vehicle was conducted, where Deputy Burk located approximately 46.365 grams of crack cocaine, 21.5 grams of methamphetamine, and a .380 pistol.
