A man was arrested following an early-morning traffic stop after reportedly giving a false name to a deputy, who then found the man in possession of meth, according to reports.

Christopher Blake Daniels, 20, of 6419 Godwin Lake Road, Dunn, was charged with possession of methamphetamine, possession of drug paraphernalia and resist, obstruct and delay. He was placed in the Sampson County Detention Center under $25,000 secured bond.

The stop occurred at about 2:30 a.m. Thursday in the area of Savannah Hill Road and Green Path Road in the Plain View community, reports state.

“A deputy conducted a traffic stop in the Plain View community for a motor vehicle violation. During the stop, the defendant gave the deputy a false name. The name was determined to be fictitious and as a result he was taken into custody (for the resist obstruct and delay charge),” Sampson County Sheriff’s Lt. Marcus Smith said.

A search revealed meth and paraphernalia. There was reportedly 1.2 grams of the drug seized during the stop.

Sheriff’s records show he also received a probation violation and was on a post-release hold, however no criminal record were found in the N.C. Department of Public Safety.
