The Defendant was involved in a motor vehicle accident and fled the scene out of fear of being caught with a suspended driver’s license. The officer tracked down the defendant due to an anonymous tip, and the Defendant admitted to driving on a suspended license. The officer subsequently arrested the Defendant for driving with a suspended license with knowledge and leaving the scene of an accident with property damage. The attorney filed a motion challenging the legality of the stop and forced the state to drop both criminal charges prior to trial.
