News Herald Arrest Report

A Loudon man was arrested Saturday on multiple drug charges after driving under the influence led to an accident.

Loudon County Sheriff’s Office Cpls. Chris Jenkins and Ernie Brown responded to a possible vehicle wreck on Vonore Road. Prior to arrival, dispatch told them the car had likely left the scene.

Jenkins found a car matching the description at a residence on Clear Branch Road, according to a report.

Rusty Allen Fagg, 42, who was standing in front of the car, started walking toward the residence. A witness that lives at the residence and Jenkins told Fagg not to go in the residence. Fagg still entered the residence through a sliding-glass door and “appeared to be hiding something and exited the residence,” Jenkins wrote in a report.
Fagg was placed in handcuffs before Jenkins asked the owner of the residence for consent to search the area. Jenkins found a red and black container with a clear baggie containing 6.17 grams of methamphetamine inside a container on a table. The owner of the residence said the container was not hers. Fagg was detained in a patrol unit so that Jenkins could search Fagg’s vehicle where a silver pipe was found.
Fagg was charged with driving under the influence, manufacture, delivery, sale or possession of a Schedule II substance, possession of drug paraphernalia and tampering/fabricating with evidence and released on $32,500 bond.
