MASON CITY – A deputy spotted a driver traveling the wrong way on a street, leading to her arrest on drug charges.
The incident took place January 15, 2016 at about 11:44 PM when a Cerro Gordo deputy conducted a traffic stop at Kum & Go, 418 South Federal. The driver, 37-year-old Jill Renee Joyner, has allegedly violated a one-way traffic designation. This led to the deputy approaching and investigating the driver and vehicle. Joyner was then arrested on a charge of first-offense possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.
She was soon released from jail and will face a hearing on February 5 on the drug charge and trial in March on the paraphernalia charge.
