CHINA GROVE — A 22-year-old man faces drug charges after being searched Friday at the Bostian Heights Fire Department.

Shane Steven Hobart, of Linda Street, faces charges for possession of drug paraphernalia and felony possession of a schedule II controlled substance. At about 2 p.m. Friday, a person reported Hobart as a suspicious person as he walked from his home on Linda Street to a nearby store for a drink, according to the Rowan County Sheriff’s Office.

In an incident report, Hobart was described as acting erratically and being under the influence of drugs. After being dispatched, Rowan sheriff’s deputies found the man at the Bostian Heights Fire Department — at the intersection of Old Concord Road and N.C. 152.

During a back-and-forth and after running a search for any outstanding warrants, deputies asked Hobart if they could search him for weapons, Maj. John Sifford said. An incident report stated that Hobart grabbed his pockets and said he “didn’t have anything.”

Deputies found a little, red bag that contained a white, crystal-like rock. In another pocket, deputies found a syringe.

He was placed under arrest for the drug paraphernalia charge while deputies tested the crystal-like rock. A test determined it was methamphetamine.

Hobart was booked into jail, where he remained Tuesday, with a $1,000 bond.
