A friend and I were smoking down the street from his house when a police officer drove by on the main road, we got nervous and ran back to my truck and speed back to his house. A neighbor called the police and said we looked suspicious. We went inside and I got a call from an officer 30 mins later. He said that my doors were unlocked and my lights were on. I hadn't left my lights on. He asked if he could check my bags in my truck and I told him no. He than retrieved his K-9 unit. The K9 smelled weed in the truck and the officer confiscated it and wrote me a citation. I was wondering if he had the right to search my truck. It seemed to me that he had no reason to believe I had broken the law and therefor broke my 4th amendment rights.
