Late last week, troopers pulled over a Fairbanks man in a routine traffic stop and found that the man was wanted on several felony warrants.

Troopers pulled over 49-year-old Fairbanks resident Illya Brown during the early morning hours of Thursday. A check of Brown’s history would alert troopers that Brown was wanted on several Felony warrants that included:

• Warrant #1-Failure to Appear for Disposition Hearing-MICS III
• Warrant #2-Failure to Appear for Disposition Hearing-MICS IV
• Warrant#3-Failure to Appear for Sentencing-Failure to Stop at the direction of a Police Officer, Criminal Impersonation II, False Information, and Reckless Driving
• Warrant #4-Felony Parole Arrest Warrant-MIW III, MIW IV, MICS III, Unlawful Evasion, False Report, and Theft III

Brown’s vehicle was seized for further investigation, while Brown was transported to the Fairbanks Correctional Center where he was remanded on the warrants and held without bail.

Later investigation of the vehicle would find that it contained Schedule IIA Controlled Substances and items used for distribution.
