Oil City woman charged with marijuana possession

An Oil City woman who allegedly purchased marijuana legally in New York state found herself in legal trouble on her return trip to Oil City.

Kayla Noel Quick, 39, of Oil City, was charged March 1 after a traffic stop by Youngsville police officers. Quick faces charges including possession of controlled substances, possession of marijuana, three counts of endangering the welfare of children, driving without a license, and operating an unregistered vehicle.

According to the affidavit of probable cause, the incident occurred on February 28, 2025, around 9:34 p.m. after an officer patrolling the area saw a silver 2010 Ford Edge with an expired registration on West Main Street near Route 6. During the stop, it was revealed that Quick allegedly did not possess a valid driver’s license and that there were children seated in the rear of the vehicle. The officer said he smelled marijuana coming from the vehicle and subsequently asked Quick about it. She admitted to having marijuana in the car, stating that they had just returned from the Seneca Reservation in New York, where marijuana is legal to purchase. Quick, according to the affidavit, told the officer that she had bought approximately four ounces of marijuana.

After providing Quick her Miranda rights, the officer sought consent to search her vehicle and purse, which she granted. During the search, Quick admitted to having a bottle containing crack cocaine and cocaine in her purse.

As the situation unfolded, dispatch informed the officer that Quick had an outstanding warrant out of Clearfield County, Pa. Quick was arrested, and a male passenger was also removed from the vehicle.

Magisterial District Judge Todd Woodin set bail at $25,000 for Quick, who is being held at the Warren County Prison.

Starting at $2.99/week.
