The vehicle was then stopped. The woman appeared to be under the influence of meth, with uncontrollable body tremors and movements. She could not sit still.

Lake Hallie’s K-9 unit then performed a sniff of the exterior of the vehicle and the dog performed a “hit,” which means the dog thought it detected drugs. A search of the vehicle then found numerous needles, as well as a scale that’s commonly used for drug transactions. One of the needles found tested for meth.

A $2,500 signature bond has been set for Newcomb. His next court appearance has not been set. The woman was not charged on July 17.

Ricky L. Mullins

The 40-year-old Mullins, who has a Stanley address, was the only person to have two cases filed in Chippewa County Court on July 17. In a Jan. 16, 2017 case from Lake Hallie, he is charged with delivery of meth and felony bail jumping. In a June 28, 2017 case in the town of Edson, he is charged with possession of meth, felony bail jumping and possessing drug paraphernalia.

In the Edson case, Mullins was arrested after a traffic stop at County X, east of 345th St. The vehicle was searched, and a glass pipe with a white substance was found in the driver’s side door. At the time, Mullins was out on bond for a felony charge of physical abuse of a child.
