A Pensacola, Fla. man was arrested on June 20 on drug charges, according to the Atmore Police Department.

Public Information Officer Sgt. Darrell McMann said in a release that Ryan Green, 29, was arrested and charged with possession of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia and driving under the influence of a controlled substance. He was transported to the Escambia County Detention Center in Brewton.

McMann said at approximately 12:10 p.m. on the day of the arrest, APD officers responded to the 1800 block of South Main Street in reference to a suspicious person sitting in a parked vehicle acting strangely.

“The officers contacted the driver, Ryan Green, 29, of Pensacola,” McMann said. “Green was parked next to the roadway with the vehicle running, and was talking to himself as officers approached him. As the officers began speaking with Green, they noticed he seemed to be under the influence of alcohol and or narcotics.”
McMann said officers observed loose pills on the dashboard and a glass pipe that is commonly used to ingest narcotics on the console when Green was removed from the vehicle.

“Upon searching the vehicle, officers discovered several cathinone pills, and the glass pipe contained residue, which field tested positive for methamphetamine,” he added.
