TROY — A Kentucky man faces felony drug charges after Ohio State Highway Patrol troopers found 885 grams of hydroponic marijuana, worth nearly $9,000, after a traffic crash in Miami County.
Troopers clocked a 2013 Chevy Captiva at 89 mph on Interstate 75. When the trooper attempted to catch up with the violator, it struck a commercial vehicle from behind, causing a crash at 8:30 a.m. today.
As troopers were conducting a crash investigation, they found several bags of hydroponic marijuana that had become dislodged from the bumper during the crash. The driver was also found to be driving under suspension.
Brandon D. Means, 27, was transported to Upper Valley Medical for his injuries and charged with possession of marijuana and possession of criminal tools, both fifth-degree felonies. If convicted, he could face up to two years in prison and up to a $5,000 fine.

Wow Brandon. Speeding, driving on a suspended and carrying about 2 lbs of weed. If you're breaking the law the worse thing that you can do is bring attention to yourself.
Brandon's a 1st class idiot. Carrying that much smoke with a suspended drivers license, the idiot should do the speed limit and blend in. What a fool!
