On a routine patrol today up and around Pennsylvania after checking the various trade lanes within the system, I took a detour towards the Driftwood Ice Asteroid Field.
Encountered an "Ex-Bundschuh" Sabre fighter belonging to a man known as Erich Kluggman hovering above the Bradford moon. Had an... amicable conversation with them about their proximity away from the trade lanes and scanned their cargo hold whilst I was at it.
It contained some Sunbucks Coffee and Donuts, a singular escape pod containing a Liberty Police officer as well as a single unit of Cardamine.
What ensued after was a check on their ship's ID which stated that they were a Freelancer with a Bundschuh IFF. A suggestion was made to get it scrubbed to a more accurate representation of who and what they represent.
What was enforced however was the relinquishment of the police officer's escape pod and to drop their Cardamine. The escape pod was received but it was noted that the individual would not be able to be rid of their Cardamine for he was currently and for the foreseeable future be indulging in it and thus would require him venting his cockpit to allow for reception of said illegal substance.
I have issued him a fine of 2000 credits and got him on his way. He was last seen on a vector towards the Zoner station of Bethlehem.
The police officer has also been returned to Planet Erie safe and sound.
Patrolmen do take note that any subsequent encounters with him will require bringing him in should he not heed the advice of staying within the trade lanes of Pennsylvania.
That will be all.
