Alpena man arrested for methamphetamine
ALPENA, Mich. — Michigan State Police have arrested an Alpena man for one count of possession of methamphetamine.
On Sunday, March 14, a trooper from MSP Alpena Post was called to a residence on Hunt Road in Wellington Township. The homeowner found a brown paper bag containing $100 cash, an SD memory card and two small bags containing a white powdery substance, which later tested positive for methamphetamine, on his front porch. Security cameras captured a male subject walking up the driveway to the home at approximately 1:00 a.m. and leaving a short time later. The homeowner suspected this person was a neighbor.
