A Springhill man is facing charges including a pair of drug counts after officers uncovered illegal narcotics and stolen items at his residence Monday.

Springhill Chief of Police Will Lynd said 67-year-old Floyd J. Brown has been booked for possession of CDS Sch. II (methamphetamines), possession of CDS Sch. V (Acetaminophen and Codeine) and possession of stolen things.

Brown reportedly is being held at Bayou Dorcheat Correctional Center under a $8,500 bond.

Springhill officers reportedly executed a search warrant at his Oak St. residence shortly after 8 a.m. Monday where they discovered a small zip-lock baggie of methamphetamines in plain sight on his bed. Officers also recovered items inside his bedroom which had been reported stolen.

Officers also found a sunglass case containing four Acetaminophen and Codeine pills in his pants pocket.
