GAINESVILLE - Drug distribution charges have been filed against a Gainesville man following a routine traffic stop. <br>
<br>
Lt. Gary Entrekin of the Gainesville Police Department says the charges involve 12 pieces of crack cocaine found in a car driven by 34-year-old Eric Lamont Childers.<br>
<br>
Lt. Entrekin says the officers found the crack in a "small pill bottle" under the driver's seat of the car after Childers consented to a search of the vehicle. Entrekin says the officers asked to search the car because Childers was "acting suspicious."<br>
<br>
The arrest was made about midnight Monday on Dorsey Street.<br>
