Deputy Milton Pesante was patrolling a Callaway neighborhood when he received a call for possible drug activity.
It was at that time a vehicle, without tail lights, quickly exited the complex.
Marcus Devon Shorter (Age 19 of Ridge, Md) attempted to exit the front passenger seat of the vehicle and walk away. He, along with the other two (2) occupants were detained.
Shorter was wanted for Failure to Appear and arrested. A search incident to that arrest revealed marijuana hidden on his person. The amount and manner it was packaged indicated intent to distribute. A small amount of cocaine was also recovered.
Additional charges are pending a State’s Attorney’s Office review.
