George Middlebrooks has been indicted by a Barren County grand jury on a myriad of charges.

The 43-year-old Georgia man was arrested on Lexington Drive by Glasgow police officers after leading them on a brief vehicle and foot pursuit. At the time he was found to “be in possession of a small amount of marijuana and a large amount of currency,” the police report from the time stated. Members of the Barren River Drug Task Force also found “crystal methamphetamine, marijuana, cocaine, ecstasy, and prescription medication that was packaged in a manner consistent with trafficking of those controlled substances along with a large amount of currency” in his Lexington Drive residence.

Middlebrook was indicted twice by the grand jury on charges of first-degree trafficking in methamphetamine (2 grams or more – first offense), two counts of third-degree fleeing or evading police on foot, tampering with physical evidence, two counts of operating on a suspended or revoked license, first-degree fleeing or evading police in a vehicle, first-degree wanton endangerment, reckless driving and disregarding a stop sign.

His circuit court appearance is set for July 28 at 1 p.m. and both cases have a $5,000 cash bond.
