A state trooper stopped a Chevrolet Silverado after seeing that its third brake light was not working.<\/p>\n<p>The driver was identified as Anderson. The complaint states that his driver\u2019s license was expired. The report also says he showed signs of impairment during the stop.<\/p>\n<p>After field sobriety testing, Anderson was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of drugs. A later search of the pickup led to the discovery of a zippered case between the driver\u2019s seat and center console, the complaint says.<\/p>\n<h2>What Investigators Found<\/h2>\n<p>Inside the case, authorities reported finding a smoking device and a baggie of suspected methamphetamine. The complaint states that the substance later field tested positive for methamphetamine.<\/p>\n<p>Investigators said the substance weighed about <strong>0.85 grams<\/strong> on a digital scale.<\/p>\n<h2>Possible Penalty<\/h2>\n<p>The charge is listed under <a href=\"https:\/\/www.revisor.mn.gov\/statutes\/cite\/152.025\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Minnesota Statute 152.025<\/a>.
