A man and woman are facing drug charges after a deputy found them with methamphetamine during a routine traffic stop investigation.
34-year-old Timothy William Patrick of Walker Drive and 30-year-old Tavisha Juanita Hall of Midway Road, Smithville are each charged with possession of methamphetamine with intent to manufacture, sell, or deliver. Bond for each is $50,000 and they will be in court January 5.
Sheriff Patrick Ray said that on December 20 a deputy conducted a traffic stop on a white Chevy Caprice for suspended registration and spoke with both the driver, Hall and her passenger, Patrick. After obtaining permission to search, the officer found a small vial of a crystal-like substance inside a flashlight under the center console of the vehicle believed to be methamphetamine.
The two were also cited for possession of drug paraphernalia after a scale was found next to the methamphetamine.
