Two Menominee residents are facing serious felony charges following a drug investigation that uncovered methamphetamine, other suspected drugs and a firearm.
Menominee County Prosecutor Jeffrey Rogg says 25-year-old Mason Thomas Berden and 28-year-old Kirstie Anna Paris are each charged with possession with intent to deliver methamphetamine and felony firearm.
The investigation began overnight November fourth into the fifth, when Upper Peninsula Substance Enforcement Team detectives conducted a traffic stop near Northshore Drive and 48th Avenue in Menominee.
Police say Paris was driving, while Berden was a passenger wanted on a felony warrant.
A police K-9 alerted officers, who reportedly discovered more than 48 grams of methamphetamine, along with psilocybin, marijuana, a digital scale, a pistol and ammunition.
Both suspects were arraigned Thursday.
Bond was set at 100-thousand dollars for Berden and 10-thousand dollars for Paris.
Prosecutor Rogg says the investigation remains active, with additional charges expected.
Both defendants are presumed innocent unless proven guilty.
