Bagley man charged with meth possession
A 41-year-old Bagley man has been charged in Crawford County Circuit Court with one count of possession of meth (repeater), and one count of operating with a restricted controlled substance in his blood (fourth offense).
Jason Udelhofen faces up to $20,000 in fines and 9.5 years in prison if convicted of both counts.
According to the criminal complaint, a Crawford County Sheriff’s Department deputy made a traffic stop in the village of Ferryville. The traffic stop led to a search, and the deputy found a plastic baggie containing large crystalline chunks, which later was identified as meth.
Udelhofen said he had just purchased the baggie of meth in La Crosse for $120 and had taken a “hit” of meth while he was in La Crosse earlier, the complaint said.
