KNOX CO. – Two Vincennes residents were arrested on felony drug charges Monday night following a traffic stop on US 50, east of Wheatland.

A Knox County Sheriff’s deputy initiated the stop and, upon detecting the odor of marijuana, called for a K-9 unit.
The K-9 alerted to the presence of illegal drugs in the vehicle. The driver, 53-year-old Charles Hayes, was arrested and charged with possession of methamphetamine and marijuana. The passenger, 35-year-old Rebecca Workman, was charged with possession of methamphetamine, a controlled substance, marijuana, and paraphernalia.
Those facing criminal charges are considered innocent unless convicted through due legal proceedings. Accusations alone do not imply guilt; the judicial system will evaluate the presented evidence to reach a verdict.
