Priceville police: Man had psilocybin laced with fentanyl, marijuana during I-65 stop
According to a police affidavit, an officer initiated a traffic stop at approximately 1:47 a.m. on a gray Hyundai Elantra traveling south on I-65 for failing to signal a lane change and having an obstructed windshield.
Police said they identified the driver as 29-year-old D'Angelo Antonio Bates from Toledo, Ohio.
There was an odor of raw and burnt marijuana coming from Bates' vehicle, according to the affidavit, which prompted officers to conduct a search. Officers located a firearm, 2.3 pounds of marijuana, 2.3 ounces of fentanyl laced "psilocybin/psilocin substance," and various drug paraphernalia hidden within the vehicle's spare tire compartment, police said.
Bates was charged with trafficking in cannabis, trafficking dangerous drugs-fentanyl, and unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia. He remained in the Morgan County Jail in lieu of a $515,000 bond Tuesday, according to jail records.
A felony warrant signed by Morgan County Circuit Judge Jennifer Howell states that Bates' bond was set higher because of his criminal history, his status on bond in another state for felony assault and strangulation, and concerns that he poses a danger to the community.

Bryan Kohberger kept creepy keepsakes from women stashed in glove box: report
Bryan Kohberger stashed bizarre keepsakes in his car glove compartment from women he knew before he butchered four University of Idaho students, a new report revealed. The creepy mementos — a pair of ID badges — were discovered after his December 2022 arrest by authorities searching Kohberger's parents' home in Albrightsville, Pennsylvania, , KIMA reported citing Latah County prosecutors. Bryan Kohberger kept ID badges of two women, one of whom he previously worked with, stored in a glove box. AP Advertisement One of the IDs belonged to an unidentified woman who worked with Kohberger at the Pleasant Valley School District. The convicted killer was a security guard for the school district from 2016 through 2021. Details surrounding the ID of the other woman are not known. Advertisement Both women stated they were 'surprised' to learn that Kohberger had their IDs, but neither said they were ever harmed or threatened by him, according to prosecutors. Kohberger was convicted last month of slaughtering University of Idaho roommates Kaylee Gonclaves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin on Nov. 13, 2022. He declined to speak during trial when given the opportunity to explain why he committed the seemingly random and barbaric crimes. Final photo of the victims, pictured just hours before their untimely deaths. Instagram/@kayleegoncalves Advertisement A lack of closure has left some continuing to pour over Kohberger's trail of evidence to piece together a motive or his state of mind. Earlier this week, police bodycam footage of a traffic stop in Latah County was released which showed Kohberger speaks seemingly more than he did through the trial. 'I'm just being honest with you,' the cold-blooded killer told the officer. Advertisement 'Just for future reference, I'm obviously not this person, like I told you I wasn't wearing my seat belt — do people lie to you about that? Say I lied to you about that?' Kohberger eerily asked the deputy during the traffic stop. Less than three months later, Kohberger would drive that white Hyundai Elantra to Idaho where he stabbed four students to death.
