Officers with the Sanilac County Drug Task Force arrested two suspects and seized a quantity of methamphetamine during a traffic stop in Deckerville last week.
The stop resulted from an ongoing investigation into distribution and use of meth in the county. Shortly before 2:00 p.m. on Wednesday, January 4, officers pulled over a vehicle of interest on Black River Street, where a search was conducted and the drugs seized.
During the stop, the driver, a 26-year-old Applegate man, and a 36-year-old female passenger from Croswell were both arrested on outstanding warrants and for possession of the meth. A second passenger was released at the scene.
The Sanilac County Drug Task Force was assisted in the investigation by the Sanilac County Sheriff’s Office, the Sanilac County Drug Task Force K-9 Unit, and the Deckerville Police Department.
