On Wednesday, Officer Bennett with the Marshall County Sheriff’s Department released details of an October 11 arrest.

About 3:45 p.m., a county K-9 Deputy conducted a traffic stop with a vehicle that was reportedly swerving all over the road on State Road 17 near Glenn Overmyer Drive.

The driver of the vehicle was identified as Kenneth Jordan, 60, and during the traffic stop, suspected methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia were located in the vehicle.

Jordan was transported to the Marshall County Jail and booked in for possession of methamphetamine and possession of paraphernalia. He was held on a $1,500 cash bond.

The Marshall County Sheriff’s Department was assisted by the Plymouth Police Department and the Indiana Department of Natural Resources.
