(KNSI) — A 42-year-old Minneapolis man was jailed after a traffic stop allegedly turned up drugs and a loaded handgun.
The CEE-VI Drug and Gang Task Force assisted Eden Valley police and the Meeker County Sheriff’s Office on the stop just after midnight Thursday morning. A press release says a search of the man’s vehicle turned up 900 fake oxycodone pills that tested positive for fentanyl and approximately a half pound of marijuana wax.
The man was arrested and booked into the Meeker County Jail on first-degree aggravated drug charges.
