Two suspects were arrested on drug charges following a traffic stop Sunday night on US 68 in Logan County.

Deputies stopped a car driven by 30-year old Charles Ahlfield of Russellville for a traffic violation and a news release says a computer check showed his license to be suspended for a prior DUI.

A search of the car allegedly revealed marijuana, methamphetamine, prescription pills and a gun reported stolen out of Paducah.

Ahfield was arrested and charged with possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia and driving on a DUI suspended license.

A passenger, 33-year old Derrek Dickson of Melber, Kentucky, was arrested for trafficking in marijuana, trafficking in meth, trafficking in a controlled substance, receiving a stolen firearm and possession of a handgun by a convicted felon.
