KENTUCKY — A Todd County man is facing multiple drug-related charges following a traffic stop Monday, according to authorities.
Officials said 43-year-old Joseph O’Bryan of Guthrie was a passenger in a vehicle stopped at 5 p.m.
The Pennyrile Narcotics Task Force asked O’Bryan to exit the vehicle, and a subsequent search uncovered a set of digital scales and over 1 pound of suspected methamphetamine.

O’Bryan was arrested and charged with first-degree trafficking in a controlled substance (first offense, greater than or equal to 2 grams of methamphetamine) and drug paraphernalia – buy/possess. He remains in the Todd County Jail.
