Deputies made another felony crystal meth arrest last week, this time assisting a stranded motorist on Highway 16 early Saturday morning.
Zorro Clayton, 33, 10940 County Road 632, was arrested and charged with public intoxication, false ID information, resisting arrest, disorderly conduct and felony possession of a controlled substance believed to be meth, according to Neshoba County Sheriff Eric Clark.
Neshoba County deputies were patrolling in the Pearl River community near the intersection of Highway 16 west and Road 2606.
The officers encountered a maroon Ford Fusion that appeared to be disabled in the intersection. Clayton was identified on scene and offered assistance.
Clark said that Clayton appeared to be under the influence and acted suspiciously. The encounter then escalated and Clayton was arrested and he was booked at about 6 a.m.
Clayton on Monday remained in the Neshoba County Detention Center on a $3,000 bond.
