This comes from Wrestling Global News and I thought I would put this one because there is more information than what I got earlier.


Jeff Hardy was arrested today near his home in Cameron, North Carolina
on charges of trafficking in prescription pills and possession of
anabolic steroids.

The Moore County Sheriff's Office confirmed that during a search of his
home they seized 262 Vicodin prescription pills, 180 Soma prescription
pills, 555 milliliters of anabolic steroids, a residual amount of powder
**** and other items of drug paraphernalia.

The estimated street value of the drugs seized was $2,500.00.
 
Hardy, 32, was the subject of a joint investigation by officers from the
Moore County Sheriff’s Office Narcotics Unit, Moore County Sheriff’s
Office Select Enforcement Unit and the Fayetteville Police Department.

He was booked at Moore County Detention Center and later released on a
$125,000 secured bond.

His full arrest report won't be made public until Monday.

The story has been picked up by several media outlets based on a press
release by the Moore County Sheriff's Office.

However, Hardy has been posting messages regarding his arrest on his
Twitter account.

He wrote: "The media is the media, I wish they would at least report the
story correctly & accurately. I will make a statement later."

In response to a story on the TMZ website, he also stated: "For the
record, Matt didn't bail me out, loan me money, or is his name on
anything..He's just learning about today's situation."

The WWE has made no official statement on his arrest.
