LEXINGTON, S.C. – Lexington County narcotics agents arrested an Irmo man wanted on multiple drug charges after a traffic stop Wednesday on Interstate 20.
Stewart Jamaul Stroman, 34, is charged with multiple counts of trafficking meth greater than 400 grams, trafficking fentanyl and criminal conspiracy among other drug charges, according to arrest warrants.
“A deputy pulled Stroman over on I-20 near exit 55 and once he confirmed his identity, the deputy detained Stroman because there were multiple warrants for his arrest,” Lexington County Sheriff Jay Koon said. “The deputy conducted a probable cause search of Stroman’s vehicle and found more than 1,000 grams of meth.”
A thousand grams of meth has a street value of about $6,000, according to Koon.
“Stroman was arrested on the side of the interstate and transported to the Lexington County Detention Center,” Koon said. “A magistrate judge denied him bond.”
