A Purdue University professor was arrested in connection with drug-related charges and alleged propositions by women. Sergey Macheret , 65, was arrested Wednesday after a weeks-long investigation by the Lafayette Police Department into multiple allegations of a “suspicious male approaching a female,” according to Indianapolis news station Fox 59.

The department’s investigation, which began in December, led them to Macheret, according to the outlet. A plainclothes officer reportedly managed to obtain information that caused the police to conduct a traffic stop, leading to his arrest. Details of the information police had were not shared.
