The patrol officer observed 30-year-old Jaraelyn Hill speeding between Healy and Nenana and proceeded to pull her over. After identifying Hill they found her to be the subject of an outstanding federal warrant.


The investigation at the scene continued and K9 Balu-Mocha signaled drugs present in the vehicle. This resulted in the seizure of 1,475 grams (3.252 pounds) of crystal methamphetamine, digital scales and over $4,000 in cash.

The investigation into the drugs is proceeding and is being investigated by Fairbanks-based DEA and the Fairbanks Area-wide Narcotics Team.
