Agents reported that consent was given to search the vehicle and its occupants.
During this search, a small bag of marijuana was discovered under the passenger seat, and 27 bags of marijuana were found on the juvenile, reports stated.
The suspects were charged with possession of marijuana and possession of marijuana with the intent to distribute, reports stated.
