DURANT, OK -- A suspected meth dealer was busted yesterday in Durant. Police say they initially got a call of a man who'd locked himself in a gas station bathroom claiming he needed the police.

When officers arrived at the Lucky Stop at Washington and Evergreen, 29-year-old Justin Jones said he no longer needed help. But police observed Jones acting restless, sweating profusely, and behaving to be under the influence of a stimulant.

Upon search, police found over 7 grams of meth in a baggy in Jones's shirt pocket, and later found a scale and other paraphernalia in the vehicle.

Jones was arrested for possession with intent to distribute and booked into the Bryan County Jail.
