Police make Cocaine, Oxycodone, Firearms and Morphine arrests

Information was received by detectives of drug activity in the Piney Point area and the source of the drug activity was Shannon Danielle Parker (Age 38 of Piney Point, Md.). As the investigation continued, a vehicle stop was conducted by a member of the Vice/Narcotics Support Team on a vehicle in which suspect Parker was in. A search revealed a digital scale, cocaine, methamphetamine and “suboxone”. Suspect Parker and another suspect Thomas Ronald Morgan aka “Big Head” (Age 50 of Piney Point, Md.) were arrested. A search and seizure warrant on the home led to nearly $1,000 worth of “crystal methamphetamine”, cocaine and other paraphernalia. Additional charges are pending a case review with State’s Attorney Richard D. Fritz.
