MELLOY, Circuit Judge.

A Missouri State Highway Patrol officer stopped John David Farnell on suspicion that Farnell robbed a bank in Cuba, Missouri. The officer searched Farnell’s vehicle and discovered evidence matching the bank robber’s description and tending to show Farnell’s involvement in the robbery. Farnell moved to suppress the evidence, claiming that the stop and search of his vehicle violated his Fourth Amendment rights. The district court 1 denied Farnell’s motion, and Farnell appealed. For the reasons set forth below, we affirm.
