Fayette County Sheriff Keith Korenek reported on May 24, around 9:30 a.m., Drug Interdiction Investigator David Smith conducted a traffic stop on a 2011 GMC Acadia for a traffic viola tion on Interstate 10 at the 664 mile marker westbound occupied by two subjects.

Once contact was made with the driver who had no driver's license or proof of insurance for the vehicle, Smith explained to the driver the license plate on this vehicle was a fictitious license plate not for the vehicle.

A consent to search the vehicle was given and Smith located a dark-colored ski mask, vehicle unlock tools, clear tape, a wedge pump, a key fob, black disposable gloves, and an Autel professional key tool.

Smith also located the tools in a backpack on the floorboard of the car.

The driver, identified as Yubi er Darroman Hernandez, 36, and the passenger Yonlis Gil Menen dez, 38, both of Houston, did not claim ownership of tools located in the car.

Assisting Smith on the scene was Deputy Herman Olvera.

Both subjects were arrested for Unlawful Use of Criminal Instruments and transported to the Dan R. Beck Justice Center in La Grange and released to jail staff.
