Bryan Man Arrested After Receiving Over 250 Grams of Methamphetamine Via Mail
A Bryan man is behind bars after receiving a package containing methamphetamine through the mail. The United States Postal Inspection Service (USPIS) says they flagged a suspicious package on August 5, 2026. They obtained a warrant and found a fanny pack with a bundle wrapped tightly in black tape inside. Upon the discovery, the Inspection Service contacted the Brazos County Sheriff’s Department. The Sheriff’s Office arranged for the postal service to make the delivery to the address in the 600 block of West 16th in Bryan the following day. Reports say that approximately 45-minutes after the delivery, two vehicles arrived at the house. The driver of one of the vehicles, later identified as 59-year-old Michael Leon Moore, Jr., retrieved the package and left the scene. Officers conducted a traffic stop on Moore’s vehicle, but the package could not be located. Drones involved in the surveillance operation revealed that Moore had tossed the package from the cab of his truck into a nearby ditch. The official weight of the meth and its packaging was 271 grams. Moore was arrested and charged with Tampering With Evidence and Delivery of a Controlled Substance greater than 200 grams, but less than 400 grams. He remains jailed on $100,000 bond. This was Moore’s 15th time in the Brazos County Jail. The second vehicle involved was occupied by 49-year-old Lindy Cruse of Houston. A search of her vehicle uncovered 3.5 grams of methamphetamine.
