Bedford Man Arrested After Police Find Him With Meth

Last updated on Monday, December 15, 2014

(BEDFORD) - A Bedford man was arrested after police received a call at 1 p.m. Sunday about a man asking a resident in the 1300 block of South Leatherwood Road to help him load a motorcycle into the back of a truck.

"There was some question on if the motorcycle had been stolen," says Sheriff Sam Craig.

When officers arrived to speak to the resident and 56-year-old Billy Hardin, who was loading the motorcycle, they found Hardin was wanted on a warrant for failure to appear.

Hardin was arrested on that warrant. During a search of Hardin's pockets, police discovered a white powdery substance that field tested positive for meth. Hardin also had drug paraphernalia in his pocket.

Hardin was taken to jail on the warrant and on a charge of possession of meth and drug paraphernalia.

Police are still investigation to determine if the motorcycle was stolen.
