Larry L. Piatt III, 27, of 332 S. Detroit St., Apt. C, was arrested Thursday for possession of drug paraphernalia after a 4:05 p.m. traffic stop.
An officer of the Bellefontaine Police Department observed Piatt operate a car from Madriver Street onto westbound Sandusky Avenue. While turning, Piatt drove into the north most lane rather than the center westbound lane which is an improper turn violation.

A probable search of the vehicle located a pipe used for abusing methamphetamine, a pipe for smoking marijuana and small containers with drug residue.
He was lodged in the Logan County Jail.
