(Shenandoah) A Clarinda man was arrested early this morning on drug charges.
The Page County Sheriff’s Office says Deputies conducted a traffic stop on a Dodge Dakota in the 900 block of Ferguson Road in Shenandoah for a traffic infraction at 12:30 a.m. During the traffic stop, the Shenandoah Police K-9 conducted a free air sniff of the vehicle. Shenandoah Police K-9 Remmi alerted to the presence of a controlled substance in the vehicle. Shortly thereafter, 41-year-old Daniel Lee Mattox was arrested for Possession of a Controlled Substance (Methamphetamine) and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia.
Mattox was transported to the Page County Jail where he is being held on $1,000 bond pending further court proceedings.
A charge is merely an accusation and that the defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
