BARNES, Presiding Judge.
After police discovered more than 28 grams of cocaine in a car driven by Teumbie M. Weems, she was charged with trafficking in cocaine. Weems filed a motion to suppress, arguing that the officer extended the scope of the traffic stop and lacked reasonable suspicion of criminal activity beyond the traffic violation. Following the hearing on the motion, the trial court denied the motion but issued a certificate of immediate review. Thereafter, we granted Weems’ application for an interlocutory appeal, and this appeal ensued. For the reasons explained below, we reverse.
