On Thursday, Oct. 13, at 6:33 p.m. Beaumont police made a traffic stop in the 1800 block of Rivercrest that resulted in a 40-year-old man’s arrest on a trio of drug charges.

Officers located what was later determined to be 159 grams of suspected Hydrocodone pills, 31 grams of suspected Soma pills, 16 grams of suspected Oxycodone, and a large sum of U.S. currency after stopping Bryan Joseph Minnard.

BPD placed Minnard under arrest and transported him to the station, where he was interviewed by narcotics detectives. After speaking with detectives, he was transported to Jefferson County Correctional Facility and booked on three counts of possession of a controlled substance.

A judge set his bond at $120,000. As of press time, Minnard did not appear on the Jefferson County inmate roster.
