Syllabus

CONSTITUTIONAL LAW/CRIMINAL – SEARCH AND SEIZURE – REASONABLE SUSPICION – PAT-DOWN: Where defendant was a passenger in an automobile stopped by police for excessive window tinting, the trial court did not err in granting defendant's motion to suppress evidence recovered after a pat-down, because the officer did not have a reasonable suspicion that defendant was armed and dangerous to permit the pat-down.
