GP Police Jailed Man for Probation Violation after He was Found with Drugs

Grants Pass Police jailed a man for violating his probation after his corrections officer found him to be in possession of narcotics this week.

The Police Department reports officers arrested 25-year-old Alex Ushaiah Tallman near the corner of NW Savage Street and Conklin Avenue on Thursday evening.

Police said that Tallman's corrections officer detained him after finding him to be in possession of a white powdery substance suspected to be methamphetamine. A field test confirmed the substance was meth and the suspect was arrested.

Tallman was lodged at the Josephine County Jail for Meth Possession and the resulting Probation Violation related to a recent arrest for Menacing and Reckless Endangering of a Highway Worker. He was being held on a no-bail detainer.
