A Dubach man was arrested by Ruston Police last week after he was found unconscious in a parked recreational vehicle and was later found in possession of drugs.
Richard Lee Reid, 66, was found by a patrol officer in an RV in a business parking lot June 3. The side door of the RV was open, and Reid was seen passed out in the passenger seat.
Officers were able to waken Reid and ask him to exit the RV. He was observed to have pinpoint pupils consistent with drug use.
Reid denied using narcotics, but a search of the vehicle located a cigarette pack containing a small bag of suspected methamphetamine. A glass smoking pipe containing methamphetamine residue, a zipper bag containing a small amount of marijuana, and five small bags each containing 10 tablets of trazodone hydrochloride.
Reid was arrested for possession of methamphetamine, possession of a legend drug, and possession of drug paraphernalia and booked at the Lincoln Parish Detention Center.
