Answer: a warrantless search or seizure

Explanation: A probable cause to seize or search property exists when facts and circumstances known to an officer would have lead to a reasonable person to believe that the item is contraband ( banned substance, items ), stolen, or constitutes evidence of a crime. When a search warrant is issued, only items described on the warrant can be searched for.
