An Anderson man with a prior sex crime conviction has been busted with drugs, according to Anderson Police. At 2:20PM Saturday afternoon 66-year-old Melvin Eugene McGee was stopped for a traffic violation in his Ford Mustang on Airport Road near Dersch. Officers say he seemed very nervous, so they asked if they could search and found almost 5 Ounces of Methamphetamine in four Ziploc bags, along with a scale and packaging. McGee was booked into jail for possession and transportation of drugs for sale. The next day a search warrant was served at McGee’s home on South Street in Anderson, and officers reported finding more drugs.
