Further on in the citation by Trooper Taylor, he noted in the report that the truck was weaving all over the road, and that the chase finally came to an end when it got stuck in a ditch at Flanary Branch.

The driver, who was identified as Austin Slone, 30, of Pikeville, KY., failed a field sobriety test and then passed out in the police car after he was arrested.

A search of the truck located more than 2 grams of meth, along with a large amount of cash and several plastic bags.

Neither Austin Slone nor his passenger, identified as Elisha R. Robinson, 40, of Robinson Creek, KY., would claim ownership of the drugs, so both were arrested for meth trafficking and possession of drug paraphernalia.
