We also located a toggle switch under the steering column, as well as, two non-factory leads, one on the frame of the van and the other ‘on the base of the sliding door. Based on my training and experience I know that type of non-factory equipment and after market wiring is often times indicative of a vehicle which has a hidden compartment or "trap." Furthermore, this van was equipped with no non factory equipment which would require the described non factory wiring and switch Based on the lack of light and conditions in the Walmart parking lot, the van was seized as evidence and towed to the ‘West Haven Police Department secure impound lot to be held with the intentions of drafting a Search and Seizure Warrant and conducting a more thorough search at a later date, 4) On November 29, 2008 at approximately 4:30 pm, I went into the impound lot to check on the van. ‘The Street Crime Unit porforms a check on all vehicles seized during drug investigations once per week to confirm they have not been damaged or tampered with while being held in the impound lot.
