| Traffic stop turns into drug arrest |
|
DESLOGE — A traffic stop for speeding resulted in a drug arrest for the Desloge Police Department on April 28. The stop occurred at 8 p.m. near the intersection of Chestnut and Vandervoot Street. Desloge Police Chief James Bullock said Officer Brad Judge observed the vehicle speeding as it crossed the center line on two different occasions.
“As Officer Judge was talking with the driver he smelled an alcoholic beverage and the moderate odor of marijuana,” Bullock said. “The driver’s eyes were glassy and bloodshot, his speech was slurred and his motor functions appeared to be lacking. The officer asked the driver to exit the vehicle. He asked the subject if he had been drinking or smoking marijuana. The subject said he had consumed two beers, but he had not smoked any marijuana.”

| Man is accused of shoplifting, inhaling carburetor fluid |
|
DESLOGE — The Desloge Police Department has arrested two people this week on charges related to illegal drug use.
The first, a 37-year-old Farmington man, was arrested April 1 for attempting to get high on carburetor cleaner, according to police. Desloge Police Chief James Bullock said the arrest occurred at 8 p.m. at AutoZone.
“Patrolman Cord Blumenstock was called to Rhodes 101 in reference to a suspicious male subject,” Bullock said. “Upon arrival he found two cans of carburetor cleaner, one of which was empty. He also found an unopened package of cookies. The suspicious man was no longer at the location though. He noticed that the cans of carburetor cleaner were AutoZone brand so he went next door to the auto parts store.”
Bullock said Blumenstock found the man at AutoZone.
“When he approached him, Patrolman Blumenstock smelled the odor of carburetor cleaner on the man’s breath,” Bullock said. “The officer detained the man and found two more bottles of carburetor cleaner on him. One was in his pocket and the other was concealed in the waistband of his pants.”
