Forsyth County deputies say they have arrested a man they’ve been investigating for more than a month.
They say in early April they learned that drug trafficking may have been happening at a home on Fields Ford Road.
Investigators learned that a man renting a room in the home, 47-year-old Billy Benefield, was using a yellow Penske truck to get meth.

They say Benefield rented the truck in Illinois, but only paid for a single day and the company had reported the truck stolen.
Last week, deputies pulled over the truck and arrested Benefield on active warrants out of Hall County.
Deputies and a K9 searched the truck and found 18 grams of meth, 15 grams of psilocybin mushrooms and drug paraphernalia.
