Wednesday evening, the Douglas Interagency Narcotics Team arrested a Yoncalla man on multiple drug charges.

DINT Commander Lieutenant Rick McArthur said detectives had information that 51-year-old Nathan Wilmarth was at a business in the 800 block of John Long Road in Rice Hill with the intent to sell a small amount of methamphetamine. McArthur said at approximately 6:00 p.m. detectives located Wilmarth in the passenger seat of a vehicle in the parking lot.

Wilmarth was detained and allegedly found to be in possession of approximately .4 grams of suspected meth. He was taken to jail. During the booking process, a deputy reportedly located approximately 1.8 grams of suspected meth concealed on Wilmarth’s person.

Wilmarth was charged with unlawful possession and delivery of methamphetamine and for supplying contraband to a correctional facility. He was detained without bail and was released on Thursday.
