A $25,000 cash only bond was set Wednesday for a Pine Bluff man on multiple drug related allegations.
Jefferson County Judge Kim Bridgforth set the bond after ruling prosecutors have probable cause to charge Reco Manning, 43, with seven counts of possession of a controlled substance with purpose to deliver.
Reading from an affidavit by Police Lt. Brett Talley, Deputy Prosecutor Shana Alexander said on Tuesday at 6:56 p.m., Talley was in the area of 13th Avenue and Cypress Street when he saw a vehicle that did not have a license plate light. The vehicle turned east on 13th Avenue and Talley conducted a traffic stop after the vehicle pulled into a driveway at 1008 S. Cypress St.
Alexander said after Manning was searched, police searched the vehicle.
Manning is currently out on bond on drug related allegations and has multiple prior felony convictions. He was told to come back to court April 10.
