Roland Man Charged with Drug Counts

A Roland man is facing multiple drug charges, an arrest warrant shows.

The warrant reveals that David Wade Teague, 54, of Roland was charged with maintaining premises for drug activity, possession of methamphetamine and possession of drug paraphernalia.

On Oct. 15, a pair of Roland police officers went to Teague’s home after learning he was living at the location without running water.

The officers interviewed Teague, but as they were leaving, one of them spotted a broken glass smoking device lying in the yard. Teague told officers the pipe wasn’t his, then gave them permission to search his home.

Officers discovered used syringes, a pair of plastic baggies containing a white residue and a white container with marijuana residue inside it. Two bent metal spoons with drug residue were also located, as well as another glass smoking device. The residue on the spoons tested positive for meth.

Teague’s bond was set at $15,000. 

The felony charge of maintaining a place for keeping/selling a controlled substance is punishable by a fine of up to $10,000 and/or county jail imprisonment for up to five years.

The misdemeanor possession charge is punishable by imprisonment for up to a year and a fine of up to $1,000. The misdemeanor paraphernalia charge is punishable by up to one year in prison, a fine of up to $1,000 or both.
