In re Rafeal E.

(Court opinion corrected 6/6/14.) Minor was adjudicated delinquent for possession of heroin and cocaine. Minor's encounter with police in alley was a Terry stop, not a consensual encounter. Two officers in marked squad car pulled up alongside minor, who was walking briskly, and ordered him to stop walking and made two consecutive orders for him to take his hands out of his pockets. A reasonable person would have believed that compliance might be compelled, and officer's orders were a show of authority. No evidence was presented that police suspected minor of committing any narcotics transactions. As police did not have valid justification for seizing minor, court erred in denying minor's motion to quash arrest and suppress evidence (plastic bag with drugs found in minor's waistband). (McBRIDE and TAYLOR, concurring.)
