(KAIR)--A stop for what police say was a traffic infraction sent an Atchison man to jail for the alleged possession of drugs, including the widely discussed opioid, fentanyl.
A release from Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson says 21-year-old Caleb Cummins was arrested shortly after 11:00 Tuesday night for possession of methamphetamine, possession of fentanyl, possession of drug paraphernalia, and illegal use of a vehicle license plate.
Cummins was apprehended in the 400 block of U.S. Highway 59, the location where Wilson says Cummins was stopped by a police officer for the traffic infraction, which led to the discovery of the alleged controlled substances.
Following his arrest, Cummins was booked into the Atchison County Jail.
