A search of the vehicle revealed that the driver was “in possession of 1.8 grams of methamphetamine, a set of electronic scales, and other drug paraphernalia.”

The motorist, who police did not identify, was arrested and charged with unlawful possession of scheduled drugs and transported to Aroostook County Jail in Houlton.

Limestone Police did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
