 A joint investigation by the Pike County Sheriff's Office and the Pikeville Police Department resulted in two men, James Colby Johnson and Antoine Lamarcus Davis, being arrested this afternoon. The two South Carolina residents are suspected of trafficking in crack cocaine and other drugs. It's been an ongoing investigation for at least a couple weeks through the Sheriff's Department and with the help of the Papal City Police Department. From what we can gather, they've been here a while and evidently there's going to South Carolina getting it, bringing it back here and selling it in our community. Little cocaine, crack cocaine, a little marijuana, some prescription drugs. It's not local stuff. It's, you know, from out of status from South Carolina and, you know, like I said, it's been an ongoing investigation for a couple weeks and finally today, you know, we made the bust. A street level value we've estimated probably anywhere between $3 to $3,500 worth of street level. Sheriff Rodney Scott said he hopes the public will help local law enforcement agencies deter out of state drug dealers from targeting the area. We just want the public to know that, you know, anytime they see or suspect anything, people from out of state coming in like this, you know, we don't want people bringing drugs in from out of state into our communities and selling them here in Pike County. Johnson and Davis are each facing charges of first degree trafficking in a controlled substance and possession of a legend drug. They were lodged in the Pike County Detention Center reporting in Pikeville for EKB News. I'm Chris Anderson.
