Walnut Hill Woman Faces Drug Charges After Traffic Stop In Atmore
October 26, 2025
A routine traffic stop late Thursday night led to the arrest of a Walnut Hill woman on multiple drug charges in Atmore.
Tracy Showers, 48, was taken into custody after an Atmore Police Department officer initiated a traffic stop near Martin Luther King Drive at approximately 11:15 p.m.
According to Atmore Police Sgt. Darrell McMann, the officer pulled the vehicle over after observing it swerving into the opposing lane of traffic.
During the interaction with Showers, the driver, the officer noted that she appeared to be under the influence and detected a strong odor of marijuana emanating from the vehicle. It was also discovered that her driver’s license was suspended. A subsequent probable cause search of the vehicle yielded a small amount of crack cocaine, a small amount of marijuana, and various items identified as drug paraphernalia, according to McMann.
Showers was charged with possession of a controlled substance, possession of marijuana second degree, and possession of drug paraphernalia. She was booked into the Escambia County Detention Center in Brewton.
