(KNZA)--A Wamego man was arrested over the weekend on multiple charges--including aggravated human trafficking--following a traffic stop in Brown County.
Brown County Sheriff John Merchant, in a release, said a deputy initiated a traffic stop on a vehicle for speeding on U.S. 36 Highway near Horned Owl Road around 4:50 Saturday afternoon.
Upon contact with the female driver, who was less than 18 years of age, the release said it was discovered that she did not possess a valid drivers license. While the deputy was speaking with the driver, Brown County K-9, Carla, arrived and alerted on the vehicle.
A search of the vehicle was conducted. Suspected methamphetamine, marijuana, fentanyl, paraphernalia, scales, syringes and an open container of whiskey was seized as evidence.
Merchant said an investigation following the search resulted in the passenger in the vehicle, identified as 42-year-old Camden Hubbard, being arrested.
Hubbard was arrested on charges of aggravated human trafficking, aggravated child endangerment, contributing to a child's misconduct, conspiracy to commit sexual exploitation of a child, use of a communication device to facilitate a felony, transporting an open container, improper vehicle registration, possession of opiates, possession of a stimulant, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.
Following his arrest, Hubbard was booked into the Brown County Jail.
Merchant said the case will be forwarded to the Brown County Attorney for review.
He said the incident remains under investigation.
