Franklin, TN –  A Shelbyville man remains jailed on charges of Promotion of Methamphetamine, Possession of a Schedule II Drug, and Driving on a Revoked License following his arrest, Monday.

James Tucker, 40, was stopped shortly after 11:30 Monday night on I65 North near Murfreesboro Road after an officer noticed that he had a tail light out. Tucker’s driver’s license was found to be revoked. During the roadside interaction, officers discovered methamphetamine. In looking further, officers found several pseudoephedrine pills, a grinder, measuring cup, and coffee filters, along with other items known to be precursors to the production of methamphetamine.
