GP Police Apprehend Two Suspects on Separate Meth Possession Charges
Grants Pass Police arrested two suspects on Meth Possession charges in separate instances Tuesday morning.
At 8:21 a.m., officers observed Mark Lyon with drug paraphernalia in plain view at Baker Park, 760 East Park Street. After being read his rights, Lyon admitted to smoking meth out of a glass pipe the night before.
He consented to a search of his person, and officers found a small plastic bag with a white, crystalline substance. The pipe field tested positive for the presumptive presence of meth.
Lyon was lodged in the Josephine County Jail for Meth Possession. He was also issued an exclusion order from Baker Park.
At 9:12 the same morning, officers located a man under the influence near NW 5th Street and NW A Street. He was dancing and falling in the street before being contacted behind a dumpster.
Concerned he would hurt himself, officers took John Hruska into custody. He consented to a search and officers found paraphernalia that tested positive for amphetamines.
Hruska was lodged in the Josephine County Jail for Meth Possession.
