A man was arrested in North Buffalo Township after a state trooper accused him of having cocaine, marijuana, ecstasy and a loaded pistol in his vehicle during a traffic stop for tinted windows and an expired inspection sticker.

Warren Paul Greenleaf Jr., 37, of the 300 block of College Avenue in Mt. Pleasant, was charged with four felony counts of possession of drugs with the intent to deliver and a felony count of illegal possession of a firearm.

He also was charged with DUI, drug possession and three traffic violations.

Greenleaf, who also lists an address in Pittsburgh’s East End in court documents, was released from custody after a Pittsburgh bail agency posted a $75,000 cash bond on his behalf, court records show.

He faces a preliminary hearing Aug. 30 before District Judge J. Gary DeComo.

A trooper wrote in the criminal complaint charging Greenleaf that he was patrolling along Route 422 on May 20 when he pulled over a 2019 Dodge Journey for having “aftermarket blacked-out window tinting.”

The tinting on Greenleaf’s SUV only allowed 18% of the light to pass through, according to the complaint.

The law requires a minimum of 70% of the light to pass through a vehicle’s window, according to the state department of motor vehicles.

The trooper said Greenleaf was smoking marijuana in the vehicle and had an ounce in his possession along with 50 ecstasy pills, powder and crack cocaine totaling 15 grams, more than 200 small bags used to package drugs for sale and a digital scale.

Greenleaf also had a .40 caliber Smith & Wesson semiautomatic pistol loaded with 10 rounds, the complaint said.

Greenleaf is not allowed to possess a firearm because he has three previous felony convictions: drug delivery in 2003 and 2004 and illegal possession of a firearm in 2012, according to the complaint.

He told the trooper he bought the gun on the street, according to the complaint.

Investigators said they got a warrant to search Greenleaf’s SUV and found three more bags of marijuana with a combined weight of more than 2 ounces.

An officer with expertise in determining if someone is under the influence of drugs determined that Greenleaf was too impaired to drive at the time he was pulled over, according to the complaint.

Greenleaf agreed to allow a blood sample to be drawn so it could be tested to determine whether he had drugs or alcohol in his system.

The drugs and gun were sent to a state police crime lab for analysis, police said. The results of those tests were not included in the criminal complaint.
