A 51-year-old man was arrested in Sequim last week following a sting operation where he allegedly sold methamphetamine to detectives on multiple occasions.

On Nov. 4, a joint operation including the Olympic Peninsula Narcotics Enforcement Team (OPNET) arrested the suspect in a parking lot in the 600 block of W Washington Street, the Port Angeles Police Department (PAPD) announced Friday.

Law enforcement seized roughly 34 grams of suspected methamphetamine during the arrest.

PAPD noted that the case underwent a long-term investigation in which OPNET conducted controlled purchases of methamphetamine from the suspect on several occasions, leading to his arrest.

The suspect was booked into the Clallam County Jail on two counts of delivery of a controlled substance for methamphetamine, and one count of possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver.
