An officer stops a person travelling in their car based on reasonable suspicion. The officer requests that the person step out of the vehicle and the person complies. The officer immediately notices a tattoo on the arm of the person that is common among members of a particular gang in the area known to engage in violence toward officers, thus giving the officer reasonable suspicion to believe the
person may be armed. The officer has not secured the person. At this point the officer is legally permitted to:
a. frisk the person, but cannot search any part of the vehicle.
b. frisk the person and search the entire car for weapons.
c. frisk the person and search any part of the passenger compartment where a weapon could be kept.
d. frisk the person and search any part of the passenger compartment or locked trunk where a weapon could be kept.
