Two Columbus residents were arrested over the weekend on drug charges after a Bartholomew County Sheriff’s Deputy responded to a report of a suspicious vehicle. Judy Jackson, department spokeswoman, says that a deputy was dispatched to the area of West County Road 100 North and North County Road 250 West at 3:43 a.m. Saturday. When the deputy arrived, he reported finding two people sleeping in the vehicle.

After making contact with the driver, 39-year-old Jeremy Kittle, he reportedly told police that he was homeless and staying at random places. Kittle also reportedly told police that his passenger, 55-year-old Doreen Cregar, was in possession of a white powdery substance. Jackson says that a search resulted in the discovery of a prescription pill bottle, not in Kittle’s or Cregar’s name, containing multiple pills, as well as a glass pipe with burn marks and a white residue.

Jackson says that both Kittle and Cregar were arrested. Kittle is facing preliminary charges of Possession of Methamphetamine and Possession of Paraphernalia. Cregar on preliminary charges of Possession of a Controlled Substance and Possession of Methamphetamine

Authorities say that both have since been released.
