Last Thursday, Anderson County Sheriff’s Deputy Dakota Williams recovered a suspected stolen motorcycle at the Git-N-Go on Clinch Avenue. The motorcycle had been reported stolen through the Knox County Sheriff’s Office.
During a search of the vehicle, deputies discovered more than 100 grams of methamphetamine hidden inside one of the saddlebags.
The driver, Michael Houser of Clinton, was arrested and charged with theft ($1,000–$2,500), manufacture, delivery, sale, or possession of a controlled substance, and driving while in possession of methamphetamine.
A passenger, Tabitha Standridge of Jacksboro, was also arrested and charged with manufacture, delivery, sale, or possession of a controlled substance.
Both suspects were transported to the Anderson County Detention Facility. The investigation is ongoing.
