A Starkville man is facing a felony drug charge and numerous misdemeanors after a Thursday traffic stop.
Officers charged Deangelo Dewayne Manning, 20, with felony possession of marijuana, driving under the influence, possession of drug paraphernalia, driving without a license, no insurance and an improper turn at 11:40 p.m. Thursday.
A Starkville Police Department press release did not state where he was arrested.
Manning was processed and transported to the Oktibbeha County Jail. His bond for the felony drug charge was set at $15,000.
Manning was previously arrested in 2014 for his connection to a Catherine Street burglary.
A Starkville Police Department press release on that incident reported Manning allegedly attacked residents with a knife before fleeing the scene.
