A traffic stop in Sioux Center led authorities to arrest an Orange City man over the weekend.  39-year-old Timothy Droog of Orange City was stopped for a traffic violation on 16th Street Southwest Saturday evening shortly after 7:30. 

During the investigation, a Sioux County Sheriff’s deputy determined Droog’s driver’s license was invalid and then discovered a controlled substance, drug scales and drug paraphernalia in his possession.

Droog was arrested and charged with possession with intent to deliver more than five grams of methamphetamine, failure to affix a drug tax stamp and operating a motor vehicle with a barred driver’s license.

Droog is being held in the Sioux County Jail on a $25,000 cash or surety bond.
