Howard County Sheriff Deputies made a drug arrest this weekend on U.S. Highway
70 west of Dierks. Deputy Travis Turner was on patrol when he noticed a gray Ford
truck crossing the center line. He performed a traffic stop and noticed them trying
to hide something. Deputy Steven Wakefield arrived and assisted in searching the
vehicle, upon the driver's consent. The driver, 54 year old Rebekah Ward of
Ashdown and the passenger, 29 year old April Ward of Dierks both exited the
vehicle. Deputy Wakefield conducted a pat down on the driver and found a syringe
in her right front jacket pocket. Deputies observed the passenger pushing a small
bag down her pants. They seized the bag which contained marijuana and also found
another syringe, methamphetamine and some pills. Both suspects are facing a
variety of drug charges and are currently being held in the Howard County Jail.
Bond has not been set at this time.
