A Canterbury man with a record of drug offenses is facing high-level felony charges for drug possession.

Caleb Young, 27, of Abbott Road, in Canterbury, was indicted on three counts of possession of a controlled drug — methamphetamine, amphetamine, and the narcotic pain reliever buprenorphine.

Young was among a number of people indicted on drug-related charges by the latest session of the Belknap County grand jury.

An indictment is not an indication of guilt. Rather it is a determination by a grand jury that enough evidence of an alleged crime exists to warrant bringing a case to trial.

The charges are Class A felonies because Young had been previously convicted of selling a narcotic drug. Class A felonies are potentially punishable by 7 1/2 to 15 years in prison.

In addition, Young was indicted on charges of being a felon in possession of a self-defense weapon — a taser, and driving after having been certified an habitual offender.
