HENDERSON COUNTY, Texas — An Athens man was arrested Tuesday after police say he was found with three safes of packaged meth in his vehicle in Henderson County.
Ryan David Woods, 32, was parked with his wife in a church parking lot off of Old Tyler Highway after 2 a.m. when a Henderson County Sheriff's Office deputy approached the vehicle.
The sheriff's office said the deputy noticed the smell of marijuana coming from the vehicle, and Woods and his wife said they had been smoking marijuana earlier.
After searching the vehicle, the deputy located safes in the backseat. Police said inside these safes were meth ready for distribution, scales, syringes and other paraphernalia.
Woods was booked into the Henderson County Jail and charged with possession of a controlled substance between four and 200 grams with intent to deliver.
