• A welfare check led to the arrest of a Mount Airy man on a felony drug charge last Saturday, according to city police reports. After being encountered by officers in the parking lot of Harbor Freight Tools on Carter Street as a result of that inquiry, Robert McNeil Pardue, 49, of 108 Knob Drive, gave consent for a search of his person. This resulted in the discovery of an illegal crystal-like substance in a pants pocket, which was identified as methamphetamine. Alprazolam also was found along with plastic baggies, arrest records state.
