Failure to dim a vehicle’s headlights proved not to be such a bright idea, and a passenger in the vehicle stopped for the infraction is now looking at an illegal drug charge.

Webster Parish Sheriff Jason Parker said 32-year-old Lindsey M. Bassinger of Springhill is being held for possession of CDS Sch.II (methamphetamines) and possession of drug paraphernalia as a result of the late Monday traffic stop.

After noticing suspicious behavior by the suspect during questioning following the stop, Sgt. Aaron Barnes reportedly asked and received consent to search the vehicle.

During his search, the deputy reportedly found suspected methamphetamines and a glass pipe with burned residue in a bag inside a purse located where Bassinger had been seated.

Bassinger reportedly was booked into Bayou Dorcheat Correctional Center. Bond has not been set.
