Two charged with meth trafficking

Two Montana residents were arrested in Post Falls this week for allegedly trafficking methamphetamines.

Around 11 p.m. Tuesday, a deputy reportedly observed a vehicle without its headlights on fail to use a turn signal when leaving a business in the area of Pleasant View and I-90.

The driver, Robert P. Chiefstick, 45, of Missoula, initially gave a fake name to police, reports say. He also had a warrant for his arrest out of Montana.

The passenger was identified as Rosalyn M. Redwood, 36, of St. Ignatius, Mont.

After a K-9 unit arrived on the scene, deputies reportedly found about five pounds of methamphetamines in the vehicle.

Due to the quantity of drugs, both Chiefstick and Redwood were charged with trafficking methamphetamine. Redwood was also booked for frequenting and possession of paraphernalia, while Chiefstick was also charged with possession of methamphetamine, being a fugitive from justice, possession of paraphernalia, giving false information to police and possession of suboxone.

Redwood is being held on a $50,000 bond. Chiefstick is being held on a $150,000 bond.
