Deputy Fleenor responded to the Myrtle Point Park on March 14 for a citizen’s report of subject s at the park smoking marijuana.
When Deputy Fleenor arrived he observed four subjects walking out of a trail from the wooded area. Deputy Fleenor approached them and advised that the park was closed after dark, during the conversation he immediately noticed the smell of marijuana emitting from the subjects.
When questioned about the marijuana the subjects each handed over their marijuana. Three of the subjects were cooperative, had local addresses, were released and charges are to follow.
The fourth subject, Jason Welch, 22 of California, was uncooperative and was transported to the detention center charged with Possession of Marijuana.
