3 Facing Drug Charges in Hazard

Police in Hazard have arrested three men with similar charges but in two separate cases.

A Hazard policeman saw a man sitting inside a pickup truck who he knew had an active warrant.

That man, Jason Fields, was arrested. 

The officer then discovered a second unidentified man in the truck who also had a warrant for his arrest for a separate case.

Both men will also be charged with trafficking in methamphetamine.

A few hours later, the officer noticed a car that did not have a light on the rear license plate.

The car was pulled over, and the driver gave a false identification.

However, the officer knew the true identity of the man.

Billy Ray Williams was arrested for a parole violation warrant, and a search of his car found drugs and paraphernalia.
