Muldrow Police Chief Tony Lewis reported that a Chevrolet truck, driven by Stormy Metheny of Muldrow, was stopped at about 1 p.m. because Metheny was not wearing a seatbelt. Lewis said Metheny, 33, was issued a citation and gave police consent to search his truck.
During the search, a sandwich bag containing a reddish-brown substance was discovered in the truck. The substance field-tested positive for methamphetamine.
Lewis said while the substance has not been checked in a laboratory, police believe the substance was red phosphorous, which is a precursor agent needed in the manufacture of methamphetamine.
Metheny, who has previous felony convictions, was arrested and booked into the Muldrow Jail on illegal possession of precursor.
