During a standard inspection of the vehicle, police were said to be alerted by a sniffer dog to a red prescription bottle containing drug.
According to law enforcement source, Snoop admitted that the cannabis was his and while he has a prescription for the substance in his home state of California, there is a zero tolerance policy for the drug in Texas.
