A former Crothersville woman, now residing in Kentucky, was arrested on a variety of drug related charged early Saturday morning by Crothersville Police.
Amy Denise Combs, 37, of Eubank, Kentucky was stopped by Crothersville Patrolman Chris Cooper and reserve officer Travis McElfresh shortly after 3 a.m.
As officers’ were writing Combs a citation for not having proof of financial responsibility for the 1995 Chevrolet pickup she was driving, her behavior led officers to believe was involved in some illegal activity, according to Crothersville Police Captain J.L. McElfresh.
“While waiting for Howard’s Wrecker to arrive to tow the vehicle, Officers Cooper and McElfresh inventoried the truck cab and uncovered several items related to using and dealing drugs,” said Capt. McElfresh.
Officers found 3.5 grams of methamphetamine, Tramadol tablets, 600 mg tablets of the prescription drug Fenoprofen, digital scales, small baggies and glass pipes all believed to be used in connection with drug use and dealing.
Local officers booked Combs into Jackson County Jail at 4:53 a.m. charging her with dealing methamphetamine, possession of methamphetamine, violation of the Legend Drug Act, possession of a controlled substance, and possession of drug paraphernalia.
Local officers were assisted by Jackson County Sheriff Deputies Mitch Ray and Mark Holt.
