During a traffic stop Tuesday, a woman told Logan Township police she was recently pulled over with "a lot" of drugs in her vehicle, court documents stated.

So, Logan Township police searched her car and found even more drugs.

Lindsey M. Longenecker, 37, of Queen was arraigned Tuesday by Magisterial District Judge Daniel DeAntonio on multiple drug-related charges, including possession with the intent to deliver.

About 2 a.m. Tuesday, police pulled Longenecker over for allegedly driving at night without her headlights on, police reported.

After police discovered her license was suspended, Longenecker reportedly told them she was stopped Friday by the Altoona Police Department, who found a large amount of drugs in her vehicle, court documents stated.

Police asked if she was transporting any drugs Tuesday, and she allegedly told them she wasn't, but some drug paraphernalia might be in the vehicle, police reported.

Longenecker consented to a vehicle search and police found more than $1,000 cash on her and in her car as well as about 67 grams of a substance Longenecker confirmed was meth and about 20 grams of suspected marijuana, court documents stated.

Unable to post her $25,000 cash bail, Longenecker is jailed at Blair County Prison, and a preliminary hearing is scheduled with Judge Matthew Dunio on Dec. 31.
