Arteaga-Aceves was stopped on Interstate 70 in Clark County on Dec. 6 by state troopers at the request of Springfield police as part of an ongoing drug investigation, according to municipal court records.
A K9 unit indicated the presence of drugs, police said, and a search found 1 pound of crystal meth in a yellow box. That lead to a search warrant for a home in the 1200 block of West Clark Street, according to court records, where detectives alleged they found 45 grams of heroin.
Arteaga-Aceves remained in the Clark County Jail on Wednesday and will be arraigned on the felony charges later this week in Clark County Common Pleas Court.
