Complaints about a suspicious vehicle Tuesday, in Coin, resulted in the arrest of a woman on drug charges. The Page County Sheriff’s Office received complaints about a vehicle in the 2400 and 2500 block of Ironwood Avenue, in Page County, or about three-miles northeast of Coin. The complaints came from landowners in the area.

When the K-9 “Lucas” was deployed on a free air sniff of the vehicle, he alerted to the presence of controlled substances in the vehicle. A subsequent search of the vehicle found Methamphetamine and Marijuana being found. 38-year old Haley Ann Haynes, of rural Coin, was arrested for possession of Methamphetamine and Possession of Marijuana, both Serious misdemeanors.

Haynes was transported to the Page County Jail where she was being held on $2,000 bond, pending further court proceedings. Authorities says “This incident shows that alert people who “say something when they see something” can result in an arrest and take drugs “off the streets”. The Page County Sheriff’s Office would like to thank the Citizens for calling when they saw something suspicious.”
