A North Platte man is facing multiple felony charges after cops find drugs in his vehicle.

North Platte Police conducted a traffic stop at around 1:40 a.m. Monday morning, after they witnessed a van driving erratically near 9th and Curtis.

The driver, 26-year-old Peter Bailey, initially gave Police a fictitious name.  While officers were searching Bailey and three other passengers, Bailey attempted to flee on foot.  He was quickly apprehended and restrained.

A subsequent search of the vehicle revealed multiple items that are often associated with the use of methamphetamine.  Bailey was also found to be in possession of Clonazepam.

After further investigation, Officers determined there was probable cause to charge Bailey with two counts of Possession of a Controlled Substance, Resisting Arrest, False Reporting and Obstructing a Police Officer.  Bailey also had an active warrant for a Parole Violation.

A passenger in the vehicle, Amie Jackson, 37, was arrested for Possession of Methamphetamine and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia.

Two additional passengers were released from the scene.

Bailey and Jackson were both jailed at the Lincoln County Detention Center.
