UPDATE: The two men, both Bethlehem residents, were charged with possessing a small amount of marijuana, according to the police report. Their vehicle was pulled over in a traffic stop after a Bethlehem police officer noticed the vehicle’s headlights were not turned on late at night.
Officers also found drug paraphernalia in the vehicle.
The officer passed the vehicle going the opposite directions on E. 4th Street before conducting the traffic stop.
