CLEARFIELD -- A Philipsburg man is facing felony drug charges for allegedly possessing 44 grams of methamphetamine when he encountered police.
Nathan Lee Folmar, 41, was charged with possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance, false identification to law enforcement, resisting arrest and 12 counts of possession of drug paraphernalia by state police after his van was spotted in Graham Township, Clearfield County, on April 25.
According to the affidavit of probable cause, police noticed a van owned by Folmar who had several active warrants "for dangerous drugs" out of Harrisburg, sitting at a residence. The woman who lives there had an active protection-from-abuse order.
After notifying the woman and searching her home, the troopers went to the van where they saw a person lying partially under a bed in the back.
They entered the van announcing that the van being in this driveway was a violation of a PFA. The person identified himself as "Andy" and told them to get out of the van.
After the officers determined this man was Folmar, he struggled as they attempted to take him into custody.
In the van, troopers could see a black case, which was found to contain a digital scale and 44 grams of methamphetamine. In a separate container, they located multiple smoking devices, according to the report.
Folmar waived his right to a preliminary hearing during centralized court on Wednesday, sending the case on to the court of common pleas. He is being held in the county jail in lieu of $100,000 bail.
According to online court records, Folmar was charged in Dauphin County April 2 with felony possession with intent to deliver, receiving stolen property and firearms not to be carried without a license charges as well as misdemeanor intentional possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia counts.
