SALISBURY — A 30-year-old man faces drug charges in Rowan and Iredell counties after being arrested Monday near the intersection of N.C. 152 and Old Concord Road.

Justin Alexander Smith, of Maiden, was charged with felony possession of a schedule two controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia. He was also charged on warrants from the Mooresville Police Department of felony possession of a schedule one controlled substance, maintaining a dwelling or vehicle for controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia.

The Rowan charges stem from an incident Monday during which a Rowan Sheriff’s Office deputy said Smith was moving erratically while watching another traffic stop from a BP gas station on Old Concord Road. A sheriff’s deputy checked the registration on Smith’s vehicle, which expired in September.

After Smith left the BP gas station, he was stopped by the sheriff’s deputy. While running Smith’s information through a database, the sheriff’s deputy saw the Iredell County warrants. The deputy placed Smith under arrest for the prior charges and allegedly found a glass jar containing methamphetamine inside the vehicle.

Smith received a combined $3,000 bond.
