A Eureka man with a warrant for his arrest is facing felony drug charges, including the alleged possession of fentanyl.

Shane Michael Coursey, 56, is accused of possessing methamphetamine, Xanex and fentanyl after his arrest by Lincoln County Sheriff’s Deputy Brandon Huff in Libby on Jan. 24.

Huff wrote in a probable cause statement that after arresting Coursey for an outstanding warrant and taking him to the Lincoln County Detention Center, he found a mix of pills and crystals in a cup in the man’s jacket pocket.

Huff wrote that the white pills were consistent in appearance to Xanax. Blue and pink tablets field tested positive for fentanyl and white crystals field tested positive for meth.

Coursey’s preliminary hearing is scheduled for Feb. 8. As of Jan. 27, he was in the county jail on $10,000 bail.

According to Flathead County records, a warrant was issued for his arrest on Nov. 28 for criminal contempt.

Flathead County court records also show Coursey faced charges for fraudulently obtaining dangerous drugs, theft and writing bad checks in 2004 and 2005.

The bad checks case included nearly five dozen for more than $5,000. Coursey received a suspended sentence, but it was later revoked and he was ordered to serve time in a state Department of Corrections facility.
