1970 U.S. App. LEXIS 9891
United States v. Thomas Ervin Jones
Opinion
Thomas E. Jones, convicted of violating revenue laws relating to whiskey, *1197 26 U.S.C. §§ 5601(a) (12) and 5604(a) (1), complains that untaxed whiskey he was hauling was illegally seized. We find no error. Information from a reliable informer coupled with the officers’ observations established probable cause for Jones’ arrest and the search that accompanied it.
Affirmed.
