By Christa Jennings
A warrant resulted in a drug bust in the Stewartville area earlier this month.
Chief Deputy Scott Hammond reported that on May 6, Sgt. Ward and Coosa County’s Special Response Team served a narcotics search warrant at 97 Hardy Lane, Sylacauga.
During the search numerous different controlled substances and marijuana were found in the residence, along with a large amount of currency.
Ultimately 43-year-old Santarri Larquez Smith of Coosa County, in the Stewartville community, was arrested on 10 charges, including nine drug-related charges.
Smith was charged with certain persons forbidden to possess a firearm, possession of a controlled substance (buprenorphine), possession of a controlled substance (dexmethylphenidate), possession of a controlled substance (Xanax), possession of a controlled substance (phentermine), possession of a controlled substance (clonazepam), possession of a controlled substance (alprazolam), possession of a controlled substance (hydroxybutyric acid), second-degree possession of marijuana, and use or possession with intent to use drug paraphernalia.
Smith’s bond for all 10 charges, including the seven controlled-substance possession charges, was set at a total of $67,500.
He was released on bond later the same day to await trial.
