Ronald Postell was arrested Friday on one count of fourth-degree criminal possession of marijuana, a misdemeanor. An officer saw Postell make what appeared to be several drug deals in his car outside his Manhattan Avenue home, according to the police report.

Police said he drove off and was pulled over after he made two U-turns and crossed the double yellow lines. Officers said they could smell marijuana as they approached Postell's vehicle, and that Postell showed them two small bags of marijuana from the car's center console and a sandwich bag of marijuana from his pocket.

Police said Postell also told them he had more marijuana in his home, where a search turned up two sandwich bags totaling two ounces of marijuana in the man's bedroom.
