DRUG ENFORCERS PROBE STRAWBERRY-METH CASE

A recent drug seizure in Lawrence County marks the Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics' first case of flavored crystal methamphetamine in the state.

Authorities suspect powdered strawberry Quik, a drink mix, was used in the manufacturing of the substance.  Laboratory testing is ongoing.

Hosie Anthony Carter Preston of Jefferson Davis County was arrested by MBN during a traffic stop on June 22 on U.S.  84 in Monticello, said Delores Lewis, spokeswoman for the Mississippi Department of Public Safety.
