Wilson police reportedly recovered around 23 grams of methamphetamine following a traffic stop and short foot pursuit Thursday night.
An officer with the Wilson Police Department reportedly noticed a vehicle crossing the center line on Ridge Road at around 11:10 p.m. The officer pulled the vehicle over near Edmond Street and discovered that the driver, 36-year-old Jennifer Nicole Bailey, of Fox, had an outstanding warrant.
The officer placed Bailey under arrest, and a passenger in the vehicle, 34-year-old Brandon Scott Williams, of Kingston, reportedly took off running on foot.
Wilson Chief of Police Kevin Coley said the responding officer chased Williams for a couple of blocks, until the suspect tripped in the area of Ridge Road and Highway 76. “He tripped and hit the ground and the officer was right behind him,” Coley said. “So he got on top of him and handcuffed him.”
