An Oak Grove man was charged with trafficking drugs after a traffic stop on Thompsonville Lane in Oak Grove Saturday night.
Oak Grove Police say 35-year-old Henry Brown was stopped at the intersection of Kentucky 115 and Thompsonville Lane and during the stop, he gave law enforcement false identifying information.
He was reportedly asked to do a sobriety test and after completing the test acetaminophen and codeine pills were found where he was standing.
After a search of the vehicle police say a large amount of cocaine along with a handgun that had been reported stolen out of Hopkins County were located.
While he was being taken to the jail, he reportedly admitted to giving false identifying information to officers and he was found to have active warrants.
Police say at the jail he was seen by law enforcement attempting to throw away suspected marijuana and he would not submit to a body scan.
He was allegedly found to have 300 fentanyl pills hidden on his body during a strip search. He was arrested and charged with trafficking cocaine, tampering with physical evidence, receiving stolen property, first-degree promoting contraband, trafficking fentanyl, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, and possession of opiates.
