Traffic Stop leads to an arrest and seizure of suspected methamphetamine

On Thursday, August 24, 2017, a Nolan County deputy working in collaboration with Investigators of the 32nd Judicial District Attorney’s Office stopped a brown Ford pickup for a minor infraction near the 235 mile marker on Interstate Highway Twenty. Contact was made with the driver, Kenneth Aaron Blair, of Colorado City. The Nolan County Constable assisted with the traffic stop, and during a roadside investigation, the deputy detected indicators of criminal activity that subsequently lead to the discovery of a quantity of suspected methamphetamine. Mr. Blair was placed under arrest and transported to the Nolan County jail where he was charged with the felony offense of possession of controlled substance.
