DINT release - In the late night hours of Tuesday, February 3rd, detectives with the Douglas Interagency Narcotics Team (DINT) arrested a man on multiple drug and weapons charges in the 1400 block of Booth Ranch Road, Myrtle Creek.  Detectives located 62 year old William Pease parked on the side of Booth Ranch Road in his vehicle.  Detectives believed Pease to be in the area for the purpose of dealing large amounts of methamphetamine.  With help from the Douglas County Sheriff's Office, detectives contacted Pease in his vehicle.  A search Pease's vehicle, and the area right around it, led to the discovery of approximately 98 grams (3.4 ounces) of suspected methamphetamine.  Detectives also located a concealed firearm inside Pease's vehicle.  In addition to the firearm being illegally concealed, Pease is a prior convicted felon which prohibits him from possessing firearms.  Pease was detained without incident and lodged at the Douglas County Jail on the following charges:  Driving While Suspended (Misdemeanor); Unlwaful Possession of Methamphetamine; Unlwaful Delivery of Methamphetamine; Felon in Possession of a Firearm; Unlawful Possession of a Firearm; Tampering with Evidence.  The Douglas Interagency Narcotics Team (DINT) is a multi-jurisdictional narcotics task force that identifies, disrupts, and dismantles local, multi-state, and international drug trafficking organizations using an intelligence-driven, multi-agency prosecutor-supported approach.  DINT is supported by the Oregon-Idaho High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA) and the Douglas County Board of Commissioners.  DINT is composed of members from the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, Roseburg Police Department, Oregon State Police, Douglas County District Attorney’s Office, and the Bureau of Land Management.  The Oregon-Idaho HIDTA program is an Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) sponsored counterdrug grant program that coordinates with and provides funding resources to multi-agency drug enforcement initiatives, including DINT.
