McDavid Man Facing Drug Charges After Pensacola Traffic Stop
May 15, 2010
A McDavid man is facing a felony drug charge after a traffic stop in Pensacola.
Kyle Steven Hassen, 22, of Cotton Creek Road McDavid, was charged with possession of a controlled substance without a prescription, a third degree felony; and possession of marijuana, a first degree misdemeanor. He was released from the Escambia County Jail on $3,000 bond.
An Escambia County Sheriff’s Office deputy initiated a traffic stop on a 1998 Pontiac on Pine Forest Road just south of I-10 shortly before midnight Thursday. The driver, Brandon McKendrick of Pensacola, gave deputies permission to search the vehicle. A plastic bag with marijuana and a Xanax pill were found under the passenger seat occupied by Hassen, according to the arrest report. Two more Xanax were located in the center console.
Hassen was charged with possessing the drugs because they were under his seat and based upon a statement from McKendrick that the drugs did not belong to him, the report states. The items will be processed for fingerprints to determine possession, according to the report.
McKendrick was charged with driving with a suspended license.

Mr. Hassen, keep the faith and know that many people realize that you are the victim here. A felony for possessing prescription pills? My lord, when are these draconian laws in Florida going to be repealed. I’m sure that the streets are safer for the fact that Kyle is off of the street-LOL! The war on drugs has FAILED. Stop this insanity…….ruining this guy’s life with a felony because of a couple of xanax-insanity. Walter Cronkite said before he passed away a few years a go that the war on drugs in morally wrong-if a law is causing more harm than it is intending to prevent, it’s time to change the law.
A female from McDavid arrested for having drugs in her bra. This fellow from McDavid arrested on drug charges—-maybe McDavid is more of a hot spot than we knew
