A Hopkinsville man was charged with drug trafficking after being stopped by law enforcement on South Virginia Street Wednesday night.
Hopkinsville Police say they stopped 32-year-old William Carneyhan and while talking with them he continued to reach in his pocket several times. Police say they noticed a bag containing 3 grams of suspected meth he was attempting to hide underneath him while sitting on the ground.
After a search of his belongings, he was reportedly found to have a digital scale and a marijuana grinder with crystal residue on them.
He was arrested and charged with trafficking meth, hitchhiking-disregard traffic regulation by pedestrians, tampering with physical evidence, and possession of drug paraphernalia.
