Traffic stop ends with drug charges


A 26-year-old Comber man is facing drug charges, following a traffic stop by a Chatham-Kent police officer March 22 in Tilbury.
According to police, the officer stopped the man about 6:40 p.m. and learned that he was prohibited from driving.
The driver was then arrested.
During a search, the officer found a digital scale with suspected cocaine residue on it.  The officer then conducted a more thorough search and found a baggie of suspected cocaine and a pill, believed to be a Tylenol 4. A search of the vehicle turned up a pill bottle with a white powdery substance inside — believed to be cocaine.
The man was charged with possession of a controlled substance and possession for the purpose of trafficking. He was released with a future court date.
