SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) — A Sioux Falls high school student is facing felony charges after police found marijuana and hydrocodone pills in his car.

Police spokesman Sam Clemens says the car of the 17-year-old was searched after a drug-sniffing dog alerted officers to the car during a random drug check at a lot where some students park their cars near the school.

Officers found 42 grams of marijuana, alcohol, a black ski mask, a “realistic looking” BB gun, bags, scales and two hydrocodone pills.

The charges against the student include possession of a controlled substance, possession with intent to distribute in a drug-free zone and possession of a weapon on school grounds.

The school district leases parking spaces from the nearby lot where the car in question was found and sells them to students.
