A Bartlesville man was in Washington County court yesterday facing charges of trafficking in illegal drugs after a felony conviction, unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia, and operating a vehicle with an expired/improper tag.

 The incident took place Sunday evening, a little after 7:00 p.m. On Madison St near Grayson’s Donut Hole. Bartlesville Police stopped a Honda car because the license plate was registered under a Kawasaki motorcycle.

 Jason Gorrell, the driver of the vehicle, had a purple bag in the vehicle containing a Ziploc bag with a white powdery crystal-like substance inside. It also contained syringes and digital scales. The substance would later test positive for meth in the amount of 20 grams.

 Gorrell is currently being held on $100,000 bond; his next court date is set for April 28th.
