LIBERTY CITY – A Georgia man has been arrested in Gregg County on a drug charge. Taken into custody was Ryan O’Neil Daley, 42, of Atlanta. It all began with a traffic stop. A state trooper stopped Daley’s car for following to closely to another vehicle. As the officer approached the vehicle he smelled a “strong odor of marijuana coming from the vehicle along with an odor of air freshener.” A search of the vehicle turned up more than five pounds of marijuana in a trash bag, wrapped in duct tape. Daley was jailed in lieu of a $20,000 bond.
