Meth Racoon Rats Out His Owner 😳
Springfield Township Police Officer Austin Branham, conducted a traffic stop on South Arlington Road after identifying a vehicle whose registered owner had an active warrant and a suspended driver's license. During the investigation, 55-year-old Victoria Vidal was detained without incident. However, things took an unusual turn when a raccoon named "Chewy" was found sitting in the driver's seat with a meth pipe in its mouth which lead officer Branham to further inspect the vehicle.
A subsequent search revealed:
• Bulk amount of Methamphetamine
• Crack Cocaine
• Three used glass meth pipes.
Vidal was charged with F3 possession of drugs, three counts of possession of drug paraphernalia, and was cited for driving under suspension. She was also turned over to Cuyahoga Falls Police on her active warrant. Additional charges related to crack cocaine possession will be presented at Grand Jury pending BCI lab results. Thankfully, Chewy the raccoon was unharmed, and notification was made to the proper authorities to determine that she has the proper paperwork and documentation to own the racoon.
This video was made with public record police bodycam footage.
