A 35-year-old North Royalton man was charged with possession of marijuana after a traffic stop on Interstate 77 at around 10 p.m. April 12.

Police stopped the vehicle because it was missing its front license plate. Officers learned that the man was driving on a suspended license.

After the man was taken into custody on that charge, officers found a “small amount of marijuana” and four “roaches” containing burnt pot residue.

The man was released on bond.

His court date is slated for April 23.
