BANGOR TOWNSHIP (WKZO AM/FM) — The suspect who turned a traffic stop in Van Buren County into a foot chase and a drug bust has now been formally charged.
Police stopped 29-year-old Stacy Harrington in Bangor Township for a traffic violation, and when asked to step out of the vehicle for not having a license, he bolted.
After a short foot pursuit and the application of a jolt from a Taser, the South Haven man was taken into custody for possession, resisting arrest and driving on a suspended license.
Deputies found an active one-pot meth lab, finished methamphetamine, marijuana and meth components in the car.
They also found an outstanding warrant on file.
