LINCOLN  — A man convicted nearly a decade ago of running a methamphetamine laboratory in his Lincoln home is facing new drug charges.

Police say 55-year-old Joseph Mansur was charged after police allegedly found bath salts, methamphetamine and cocaine in his car after he was stopped for speeding on Friday.

Mansur was convicted in 2002 of operating a methamphetamine lab. He spent two years in prison.

Police Chief William Lawrence says the Mansur case is the third since mid-September in which town police have seized more than $5,000 in illegal drugs.

Lawrence tells the Bangor Daily News it was second case in which investigators found a ledger listing drug customers.
