Sims was pulled over a short time later after allegedly driving at slow speeds, running a stop sign, and crossing over a double yellow line on the road.

A check of Sims showed he was driving on a suspended license.

A search of Sims allegedly revealed a capped syringe and meth.

A passenger in the vehicle was identified as 52-year-old Paula Renee Keefer of Corryton, Tennessee.

Police say Keefer attempted to swallow a small plastic bag containing meth.

A probable cause search of the vehicle reportedly revealed a small amount of meth.

Keefer was charged with felony possession of meth and two counts of tampering with evidence.
