(KAIR)--A Topeka woman faces drug-related charges following her arrest Monday, following a traffic stop in Jackson County.

Arrested was 60-year-old Paula Michael, who was taken into custody on charges of possession of methamphetamine, possession of a controlled substance, and possession of drug paraphernalia.

According to Jackson County Sheriff Tim Morse, Michael's arrest came after a deputy stopped her car for a traffic infraction near 162nd and U.S. Highway 75.
During the stop, it's alleged the deputy located illegal contraband.

Following her arrest, Michael was booked into the Jackson County Jail.

A separate traffic stop, the next day in Jackson County, landed another Topeka resident in custody also for the possession of drugs allegedly discovered after the Tuesday afternoon traffic stop.

Morse, in a release, says the car driven by 41-year-old Harrison Ireland III was stopped by a deputy on Q. Road, just south of 150th Road, for a traffic infraction.

According to Morse, "during the course of the traffic stop, a Jackson County Sheriff K-9 was deployed and alerted to the presence of illegal drug contraband within the vehicle," leading to Ireland's arrest.

Ireland was taken into custody on charges of possession of methamphetamine and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Once in custody, he was booked into the Jackson County Jail.
