Police responded to 9th and Prince streets on June 19 after a woman secretly dialed 911 because a man who she agreed to give a ride to had a bag of cocaine in the car and asked her if she wanted to do a “line.”
The woman was speaking to the man, and at the same time leading police to where she was located.
When police came to the vehicle, the woman said nothing was wrong, but when the man wasn’t looking she winked and nodded toward him as if something was wrong.
Police later searched the man and found the cocaine. The man was arrested and transported to the county jail.
