Holmes County, FL (WDNews) – A routine traffic stop turned into a drug arrest after a Holmes County deputy pulled over a reckless driver on Highway 79 on February 4.
The driver, identified as Joey Tyson, was stopped just south of the interstate. While speaking with Tyson, deputies deployed K9 Timex for a free air sniff around the vehicle. The K9 alerted to the presence of narcotics, leading to a search.
Inside a backpack, deputies found a meth pipe, a package of methamphetamine, and other drug-related items. When deputies attempted to arrest Tyson, she resisted by pulling away but was eventually secured.
Tyson now faces multiple charges, including possession of methamphetamine, possession of drug paraphernalia, resisting arrest without violence, and reckless driving.
