In the early hours of November 15, law enforcement officials in Lawrence County apprehended two individuals following a vehicle stop that involved a game warden from the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA). The incident unfolded around 12:30 a.m. on Bishop Chapel Road, where deputies were summoned to assist the game warden during his patrol.
Upon encountering a vehicle occupied by Seth White and Dominick Watts, the game warden observed what appeared to be drug paraphernalia inside the car. This prompted further investigation, leading to a search of both men. The search yielded suspected methamphetamine along with additional drug paraphernalia.
As a result of the findings, both White and Watts were taken into custody without any complications and subsequently transported to the Lawrence County Jail, where they are now facing charges related to their possession of illegal substances.
