CELINA — Methamphetamine and fentanyl were found on a St. Marys man being booked into jail on Sunday.
According to a press release from the Mercer County Sheriff’s Department, David Wheeler, 32, was booked on an “operating a vehicle impaired” charge on Sunday at 2:16 a.m. Before entering the booking area, officers found a white pill on the man.
Officers then found a rolled-up dollar bill with a white powder inside, according to the release. A preliminary test of the white substance showed a presumptive positive for methamphetamine and fentanyl.
Wheeler is now also being held on illegal conveyance of drugs of abuse into a detention facility, a third-degree felony, according to the release. The Mercer County Prosecutor’s Office will review the case.
