DTF arrests marijuana dealer at PTC apartmentTue, 08/14/2007 - 4:38pm

Undercover drug agents from the Fayette County Sheriff’s Department recently arrested a Peachtree City man who was dealing marijuana out of his apartment at Balmoral Village, police said. Agents recovered $11,760 in cash and five pounds of marijuana from the apartment, and the marijuana was found hidden in a baby’s room, said sheriff’s Capt. Mike Pruitt. Also found in the home was a .40-caliber handgun, Pruitt noted. The task force established surveillance on the residence after a tip from a Peachtree City police officer that drugs were being sold from the unit, Pruitt said. Pruitt said the marijuana was advertised as being of high quality and was being sold at $1,000 for four ounces. James Daniel Brock II, 20, of apartment 203 in Balmoral Village was arrested July 31 and charged with possession of marijuana with intent to distribute and for possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime, police said. Police also seized a car that is believed to have been used in the drug operation, Pruitt indicated. login to post comments |
