AUSTIN, AR - Police arrested a 29-year-old man on for possession after plain clothes police overheard a conversation in a gas station parking lot in Highway 38.

Police say one person asked the other, "Hey, can ya help me out and smoke a hit with me."

When approached by officers, Timothy Wayne Nesler, Jr. admitted that he had meth, marijuana and paraphernalia in his pocket and that he had an active warrant for non-payment of child support, according to Chief of Police John W. Staley.

Nesler was arrested for possession of control substances and possession of drug paraphernalia. He is being held on a $2,500 bond.

What's more stupid--discussing a drug buy in a public place or discussing a drug buy in the public place in the center of Methville???

During an election year, they will arrest you for a joint and label you a "king pin". If this wasnt an election year, a doobie would get you a new friend to smoke it with.

LMAO. Gotta love the laughs those tweekers give us. Lonoke County seems to have a lot of this going on. Shame England fired a police chief that has reduced crime in his town. Makes me wonder what the mayor's motivation was behind getting rid of him. Somewhere around 7 or 8 years ago, I heard through the grapevine of a woman in the Austin/Ward area that was a cooker. She had 3 or 4 children. When she left the trailer to go peddle her wares, she locked the kids inside the trailer from the outside with padlocks. I tried, with no success, to find out her name and location so I could alert authorites. Mayhaps Lonoke authorities should concentrate on these kind of people instead of some guy growing a little weed for personal use. Just an opinion.
