The court's record, as written
092561 Commonwealth v. Smith, Corey 04/21/2011 In an appeal from a conditional plea of guilty challenging the trial court's failure to suppress evidence of a weapon seized in a pat-down search of the defendant, a frisk of a passenger in an automobile conducted during a valid traffic stop was supported by reasonable suspicion based upon an alert in a police computer system that the passenger was "probably armed and a narcotics seller/user." The judgment of the Court of Appeals is reversed and final judgment is entered affirming the defendant's conviction.
