Woman charged with drug offenses

A 41-year-old woman from Climax was charged with drug-related offenses following a traffic stop last week in Fabius Township.

The St. Joseph County Sheriff’s Department said the woman was stopped for speeding. While interviewing the woman, deputies noticed inside the vehicle were methamphetamine, meth precursors and paraphernalia used to smoke meth.

The woman, whose name was not released prior to her arraignment, was charged with possession of meth and meth precursors, a fraudulent driver’s license, and resisting and obstructing an officer.
