A man was cited on a drug charge and two traffic violations Thursday near the intersection of North Cherry Avenue and East Sixth Street.

University police were driving southbound on North Campbell Avenue when they saw a 1977 Triumph driving westbound on Sixth Street go through a red light, police reports stated. Police stopped the car at Circle K, 1610 E. Sixth St.
