During pat down, deputies felt a solid object inside a jacket pocket. Archuleta said it was a lighter and gave the officer permission to reach in and retrieve the object, the report said.

A small bag containing a white substance was pulled out of the pocket, and Archeluta told officers that the substance was methamphetamine, the report said.
