Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Before TACHA, HENRY, and LUCERO, Circuit Judges.


HENRY, Circuit Judge.

Victor Manuel Galindo-Gonzales appeals the district court's order denying his motion to suppress evidence discovered after his vehicle was stopped at a roadblock.

We disagree and affirm the district court's decision.
