DENVER (KDVR) — A traffic stop near Summit Boulevard and West Flatiron Crossing Drive over the weekend led to the arrest of a 44-year-old man accused of being in possession of meth.
The Broomfield Police Department, in a post on X Monday, said the unnamed driver was pulled over Saturday for expired license plates and ultimately arrested and booked into the Broomfield Detention Center after the police say they found him in possession of meth.

The weekend arrest comes nearly two months after officers with the Eagle County Sheriff’s Office said a member of its narcotic task force recovered more than 43 pounds of methamphetamine after pulling over a man for speeding near the western edge of Eagle County.
A jury also found a 37-year-old man guilty on 19 charges — including two counts of distribution of meth — this month following an eight-day jury trial. The man, who was arrested in Boulder County in May 2023, was also acquitted of one charge.
