Lenoir City
man jailed for drugs
A Lenoir City man was taken
to Loudon County Jail on simple possession and drug paraphernalia
charges after initially getting pulled over for speeding.
Spotting a silver Ford Focus traveling 65 mph in a 40 mph zone, Loudon County Sheriff's Office Deputy Lance Anderson spoke with James Anthony Drake, 46, Lenoir City, after conducting a traffic stop.
After Drake opened the driver's side door, Anderson noticed a
blue glass pipe containing a green substance in the bowl,
according to the arrest report.
"I asked the driver what was in the pipe and he stated the
substance was marijuana and he used the pipe to smoke it,"
Anderson wrote.
While searching Drake for weapons, Anderson found two small
pills, which Drake told police were tramadol, a Schedule IV
substance.
Drake was charged and released on $4,000 bond.
Philly man charged

and did state that he did shoot the weapon and it was because of
a past history between (the man) and his wife," Russell wrote.
