Kimuel Brice Lee, a 38-year-old Ladson man, faces charges including first-offense DUI, open container violation, improper license plate use, and driving an uninsured vehicle after a North Charleston traffic stop on March 3, 2026. Officers pulled him over westbound on Rivers Avenue near Gumwood Boulevard for an expired registration decal shortly after noon.
Stop and Discovery
Lee admitted lacking insurance, and marijuana odor prompted a search revealing a glass jar of green plant material under the driver’s seat, a pill bottle with similar substance in the glovebox, 10 cold empty White Claw cans, and a blue cup of alcohol-scented liquid. He declined field sobriety and breath tests.
Detention
Lee was booked into Al Cannon Detention Center. The case underscores routine traffic enforcement yielding drug and alcohol evidence in the North Charleston area.
