Sutherlin Police jailed a man for warrants and charged him with introducing contraband on Thursday evening.

An SPD report said just before 5:30 p.m. an officer conducted a traffic stop and identified the driver as a 26-year old. It was confirmed that the man had three Douglas County Sheriff’s Office warrants for his arrest. He was also cited for driving while suspended.

After being placed into custody, a bindle of methamphetamine was allegedly found to have been smuggled into the jail by the way of the man’s rectum. Corrections staff retrieved the meth and turned it over to an officer.

The man was detained without bail.
