WARREN CO., Tenn. (WTVF) — Robert Alexander Russell, 38, was arrested early Saturday morning, according to the Warren County Sheriff's Office.
The department worked alongside the McMinnville Police Dept., and the Coffee County Sheriff's office to take Russell, who has a previous drug-related felony conviction, into custody.
Russell has been charged with Felony Possession of Meth, with Intent to Deliver, as well as Driving While in Possession of Meth.
Officials said narcotics investigators started an extensive investigation into Russell a couple months ago, after he allegedly transported "massive quantities of methamphetamine," which they estimated to be upwards of 3lbs per trip, multiple times a week.
Russell is being held at the Warren Co. jail on a $150,000 bond.
September 11, 2001 is a day most associate with terror and tragedy. Austin Pollack shares a story from that day about hope and persistence: the effort to save a little girl’s life – with an organ donation. The problem? The young patient was in Houston, and her life-saving liver here in Nashville. With the grounding of all civilian aircraft, how could it be done? “Nobody ever said this isn’t possible.”
