    The Banks County Sheriff’s Office said Scott was in a 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe that fled a traffic stop on Interstate 85 around 9 a.m. Thursday. Deputies said they were attempting to pull the car over for following too close to another vehicle. Speeds reached up to 98 mph before eventually stopping two miles down the road, according to deputies.

    The driver of the car, Antonn Imhotep Scott, 20, of Acworth, was charged with fleeing and attempting to elude law enforcement officers, following too closely in addition to felony drug possession.

    Investigators said the men admitted to having drugs in the vehicle. Deputies said they found mar1juana as well as over 10 grams of MDMA was in the car.

    Would they really void the contract over an ounce of mar1juana and 11 grams of MDMA?

    Smoking weed is supposedly common in the NBA

    I think any amount is a felony. 11 grams is probably about 40 pills
