Kincaid Traffic Stop Turns Into Drug Bust - Three Arrested

The Kincaid Police Department arrested three people in a routine traffic stop that turned into a drug bust Tuesday.

 

38-year-old Destiny Rickman, 46-year-old Donald Rickman, and 25-year-old Hank Skinner, all of Taylorville were arrested in the bust. Destiny Rickman had an active warrant for her arrest with a bond set at 50,000 dollars. Donald Rickman was charged with Meth Possession, Aggravated Battery to a Peace Officer and Resisting Arrest. Skinner was charged with Meth Possession and Obstruction of Justice.

 

Kincaid Police Chief Dwayne Wheeler says all the suspects appeared to be nervous as he spoke with them in the vehicle. Then the driver, Donald Rickman, tried to flee.

 

 

Wheeler says the backup provided by the Christian County Sheriff’s Office and other local police departments kept the situation from escalating.

 

 

Wheeler says the police departments across Christian County work very well together, and they are doing everything they can to get in front of the drug epidemic in the county.
