PO explained to Kimberley his concern that she had something in the bag due to her taking it with her and also my concern after locating the spoon. PO advised her she was welcome to sit back in her truck while PO searched the bag due to it being cold. Kimberley handed PO the bag and went to knock on the door of 542 Wagner Avenue.
