According to police, an officer saw the first sign of trouble when she noticed the 2003 Jaguar headed west on the Post Road was missing a front license plate; the second was when the back license plate was found to be registered to a Toyota Camry. The third, police said, was when she had the car pull over, then smelled the strong odor of marijuana as she walked toward it. Darien police described what happened with this account, including accusations not proven in court:

At about 12:03 p.m. on Sunday, June 18, the officer conducted a motor vehicle stop, making contact with the driver, who had been heading west on the Post Road near Exit 13. The driver of the 2003 X-Type Jaguar, a 19-year-old Norwalk man, told the officer that he didn’t have a driver’s license and had just bought the car, which he said was neither registered nor insured. He said he borrowed the license plate from a friend so he could drive the car.
