Two people face drug charges after methamphetamine was found during a traffic stop at a Moorhead gas station, the latest in a string of arrests tied to narcotics activity at a local motel.

Brianna Lee Bagnall, 32, faces two felony charges in Clay County: first-degree drug sale involving 17 or more grams of methamphetamine within a 90-day period and second-degree drug possession involving 25 or more grams of methamphetamine. Michael Vincent Ertelt, 41, faces the same two charges.

According to the criminal complaint, a Clay County deputy was contacted by a narcotics detective on March 20 about a white Buick Envision with Texas plates that had just left the Willow Inn and Suites in Moorhead. The detective said the driver, Ertelt, had active warrants for his arrest.
