Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Plymouth County, Daniel P. Vakulskas, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Greer, P.J., and Ahlers and Badding, JJ. Opinion by Greer, P.J. (5 pages)
Melvin Cardona Cardona appeals the denial of his motion to suppress. He argues the warrantless stop of his vehicle was not supported by reasonable suspicion or probable cause, so his constitutional rights were violated. OPINION HOLDS: Following our de novo review, we conclude the stop was justified and affirm the decision of the district court.
