Lawrence police officers arrested two people and issued one citation following a car stop in downtown Lawrence Wednesday afternoon.

Multiple police cars and the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office K-9 unit responded to the scene in the city parking lot in the 600 block of New Hampshire about 2 p.m.

Lawrence police spokesman Sgt. Bill Cory said the car was stopped after officers observed the driver going the wrong way on Vermont street.

Police officers searched the car, inside and out, and also led the drug-sniffing dog on a complete search of the vehicle.

At the conclusion of the search, two passengers were arrested on charges of making a false writing and obstruction of the legal process.

A 26-year-old from Liberal and an 18-year-old from St. Joseph, Mo., were booked into the Douglas County Jail to be held for immigration and customs officials.

The driver received a citation for driving the wrong way on a one-way street.
