A 58-year-old parolee was taken to jail Sunday night after police found 12 ounces of methamphetamine in his pickup truck during a traffic stop, according to court documents.
A Lincoln police officer pulled over Mark Holzhauser for speeding near 45th Street and St. Paul Avenue just after 11:30 p.m., an affidavit for his arrest said.
Holzhauser appeared nervous, the officer said, and didn't have a license, registration or insurance paperwork on him.
The officer asked to search his pickup and found three baggies containing just less than a half ounce of meth inside a backpack, police said.
Officers found more than $1,900 cash in Holzhauser's wallet, the affidavit said.
He was arrested and taken to jail.
Holzhauser was on parole for meth possession, police said.
