Drug task force makes meth bust

A Damascus man was arrested Wednesday for possession of methamphetamine after a search warrant was executed on his residence by agents of the 20th Judicial District Drug Crime Task Force, the Greenbrier Police Department, the Faulkner County Sheriff's Office and the Arkansas State Police.

Stanley Mason McMillen, 52, of Damascus was arrested during the execution of a search warrant and charged by 20th Judicial District Prosecuting Attorney Marcus Vaden with several Class Y felonies, which include three counts of delivering methamphetamine, one count of possession of methamphetamine with intent to deliver, one count of felony fleeing, one count of simultaneous possession of drugs and firearms, one count of possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance (Hydracodone and Darvocet) and one count of possession of Xanax with intent to deliver.

The search warrant culminated an investigation by the 20th Judicial District Drug Crime Task Force that had been ongoing for several months.

Agents also seized several items of property, including firearms, believed to be used to facilitate the delivery of the illegal drugs. Bond was set for McMillen at $50,000.
