200 pills in Reid’s car, at least some prescription

Britt Reid may have had 33 pills in his pockets when he was taken into custody last week on suspicion of driving under the influence, but there were "more than 200" other pills found in his pickup truck, authorities said.

"I think some of them are [prescription], maybe all of them," Montgomery County District Attorney Bruce Castor said. He said the results from the analysis on the drugs were not available yet. "We didn't get them in their bottles."

Castor said he would not disclose the contents of the sealed search warrant.

He expects the results of Britt Reid's blood analysis to be released on Wednesday.

Britt Reid, the son of Eagles coach Andy Reid, was jailed Friday for violating the conditions of bail stemming from a January road rage incident. Reid flashed a handgun at another driver in West Conshohocken, and officers later discovered small amounts of marijuana and cocaine in his vehicle.

Reid pleaded guilty to charges from that case earlier this month and was out on bail awaiting sentencing when he was taken into custody Thursday after failing a field sobriety test in Plymouth Township.

A store clerk at Dick's Sporting Goods, who believed that Reid was too impaired to drive, called police, who found Reid at the wheel of a pickup truck.

Toxicology results on blood sample taken from Reid are expected tomorrow.
