Waters was arrested and taken to the Audrain County Jail. After he was transported, a deputy found a plastic bag with methamphetamine, needles and Waters’ I.D. under the seat of his patrol vehicle.
Waters faces possible charges of driving with a revoked or suspended license and possession of drug paraphernalia. His bond was set at $26,000.
