An Alto man remains jailed on six felony drug counts following his arrest last week in Cornelia.
On August 11, police arrested Dustin Lee Thomas, 26, and charged him with trafficking fentanyl and possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute. Jail records show he was out on probation for a previous drug charge at the time of his arrest.
According to arrest warrants, police found Thomas with more than four grams of fentanyl and a quantity of meth, digital scales and packaging. Police say Thomas was also carrying with him a Glock 9mm handgun.
In addition to the drug charges, Thomas was charged with possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, probation violation, DUI, and a headlights violation.
The magistrate judge denied him bond. He remains in the Habersham County Detention Center.
