Investigators said Adams grabbed the taser and then threw crushed meth into the deputy’s chest and face. The sheriff’s office said he was later found hiding under a trailer.Deputies said a search of Adams’ car turned up a half dozen hydrocodone pills, 67 grams of codeine syrup, and marijuana. About 147 grams of meth were found in the area where he tossed it, the sheriff’s office said.
Adams is charged with battery on a law enforcement officer, driving without a license, depriving an officer of a means of protection, possession of a controlled substance, trafficking methamphetamine, and resisting an officer.Download the FOX10 Weather App. Get life-saving severe weather warnings and alerts for your location no matter where you are.
