Police briefs: gas tanker flips, meth suspects arrested, ex-cop sentenced

The Jackson County Sheriff's Office says its deputies confiscated more than $300,000 worth of methamphetamine this week: US Homeland Security was also in on the arrests of three suspects accused of trafficking more than 25 kilos of meth confiscated in Jefferson. 59 year-old Randy Brown, 58 year-old Tamorah Draper, and 50 year-old Rodney Scott were all booked into the Jackson County jail. 

A former Gainesville police officer gets twelve months probation after pleading no contest to a reckless driving charge: Adam Davis is 31 years old, from Cornelia. Davis was arrested last year, accused of driving 90 miles per hour on I-985 in Hall County. Besides the probation, Davis has to pay an $1,100 fine. 

Crews worked through the night in Hall County, where a gas tanker overturned on I-985, spilling gasoline on the roadway. Hall County Fire Services says there were no injuries.
