After a week-long investigation following an anonymous tip, Statesboro Police Crime Suppression Unit investigators nabbed a man who had been making methamphetamine in a local motel, said Statesboro Police Commander John R. Holloway. Roy Edgar Roberts, 44, Ellabell, was charged with manufacturing methamphetamine, possession of methamphetamine and obstruction of a law enforcement officer – all felony offenses, he said. CSU investigators, assisted by other law enforcement and public safety agencies, swarmed the Eagle Inn on South Main Street Wednesday morning as they served a search warrant on room #109, he said.
