A Fulton man was arrested on drug charges Tuesday, said Lt. Curtis Hall of the Callaway County Sheriff's Office.

Joseph Byrd, 30, was arrested for felony possession of a controlled substance.

At 5:14 p.m., a deputy patrolling County Road 220 near Kingdom City came into contact with Byrd, who was wanted by the Fulton Police Department in connection to a stealing investigation.

The deputy arrested Byrd, who was later found to be in possession of controlled substances including methamphetamine, Hall said.

Deputy was transported to the Callaway County Jail and later posted a court-set $4,500 bond.
