(KNZA)--The report of a suspicious vehicle in southern Jackson County led to the arrest of two individuals on drug possession charges.
Jackson County Sheriff Tim Morse, in a release, said a Sheriff's deputy was dispatched shortly after 1:00 Monday afternoon to the 98-hundred block of U.S. 75 Highway for a suspicious vehicle.
The deputy made contact with two occupants and discovered that the female had an active protection order against the male driver.
Morse said a Sheriff's Office K-9 alerted to the presence of an illegal substance within the vehicle. A search located a substance believed to be methamphetamine.
Subsequently, the driver, 46-year-old Freedom Hood, of Portland, Oregon, was arrested for possession of methamphetamine, possession of drug paraphernalia, violation of a protection order and unlawful vehicle registration.
The passenger, 38-year-old Rosalie Hood, of Boise, Idaho, was arrested for possession of meth and possession of drug paraphernalia.
