(KNZA)--A Brown County traffic stop leads to the arrest of two Hiawatha men, including one on multiple drug charges.
Brown County Sheriff John Merchant says 59-year-old Robert Hendricks was arrested Tuesday evening on charges of possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute, possession of marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia and no drug tax stamp.
Merchant says a passenger in the vehicle, 29-year-old Jesse Ferris, fled on foot and was later apprehended by the Hiawatha Police Department. Ferris was taken into custody on outstanding warrants and possible other charges.
Both men were booked into the Brown County Jail, where they remained in custody Wednesday.
