MASON CITY – A North End traffic stop early Monday morning led to the discovery of meth and the arrest of two men.
A Mason City police officer stopped a vehicle at 2:05 AM Monday morning, October 2 near 12th Street NW and President Avenue. After an investigation, 53-year-old Terry Lynn Hansen of Mason City was arrested on numerous charges, included possession of 1-5 grams of meth and other drug charges and driving with a suspended license. A passenger in the car, 42-year-old Joshua Lee Watt of Clear Lake, was arrested on warrants out of Floyd county for child support and harassment.
Both men were taken to jail, where they remained late Monday awaiting court appearances.


Where is all of this TRASH coming from? It is just a steady line of garbage with no end.
Most of it is coming from Mexico.
They don’t look Mexican to me. Don’t ever confuse White Trash with Mexicans.
John didn’t say anything about “White Trash” you did, you prejudiced hater. I’m, talking about the meth. Mexico, and it’s number one export, meth, is what causes some people to go bad. Besides Einstein, there are (white) Mexicans. Actually there is around 23% white European Mexicans that live in Mexico. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
I think it starts with Beje Clark. That’s where many crooks get sent that are not even from MC. Then, they plant roots here by getting a fast food job, then they rent a hovel, bring in their crooked friends, and boom, that is the growth we get. That place should have been built way, way west of town and preferably not here at all.
Agreed!
I agree, it has been a trend, they release them from that place and they have no place to go. That place has infested us with many repeat criminals.
