A 54-year-old Douglas man remains in jail after a deputy found him passed out in his vehicle with a suspected meth pipe in his hand.
According to a report from the sheriff’s office, on February 22, 2026, a deputy was at the Deep South fuel depot on Bowens Mill Road when two individuals approached him and reported that there was a man in a pickup at the Woody Folsom lot who was either passed out or dead. The officer went over and found a man, identified as David Scott Standridge, 54, in the truck slumped over with a suspected meth pipe in his hand.
The officer knocked on the window and Standridge came to. He said he was there waiting on someone. When the officer asked him about the glass pipe, he dropped it on the floor and acted like he didn’t know what the officer was talking about, according to the report. A search of the vehicle yielded suspected methamphetamine, several Xanax pills, and more pills in a prescription bottle that were not what the prescription bottle was labeled for.
Standridge was arrested and charged with possession of a Schedule II Controlled Substance. He was transported to the Coffee County Jail, where he remains.
