A search of the vehicle was conducted, and troopers located an orange prescription bottle containing a white crystal substance.

Agar appeared in the 88th District Court in Alpena on Thursday and was arraigned for one count possession of methamphetamine, a felony punishable by 10 years and/or $15,000 fine.

He is being held in the Alpena County Jail on a $50,000 cash surety bond, and is scheduled for a probable cause conference at 2:30 p.m. on Nov. 25. The 21-year-old female passenger was not charged.
