A routine traffic stop in the Village of Bath led to the arrest of a local woman on drug possession charges, according to the Bath Police Department.
On July 2, at approximately 2:32 p.m., officers observed a vehicle violate a section of New York’s Vehicle and Traffic Law on West Washington Street. Following the stop and subsequent investigation, police arrested 32-year-old Amanda L. Sprayberry of Bath.
Sprayberry was charged with two counts of Criminal Possession of a Controlled Substance in the 7th Degree, a Class A misdemeanor, and a traffic infraction for failing to signal within 100 feet of a turn.
Officers suspected criminal activity during the stop and conducted a search of the vehicle. According to the department, Sprayberry was found in possession of a quantity of methamphetamine and fentanyl.
