NORTH STAFFORD, Va. — Two men from Portsmouth face drug charges in Stafford County.
Deputies were called to a McDonalds on Va. 610 at 2 a.m. Sunday for a report of a drunken driver. A deputy responded and found a car matching the description of that given by a 911 caller and then went to talk to the occupants, said Stafford sheriff’s spokesman Bill Kennedy.
Finding two men inside the car, the deputy saw through a car window something that looked like marijuana and then told the occupants that a K9 dog was coming to search the car. The occupants agreed to a search telling the deputy the search dog was not necessary, and then submitted to a search where deputies found plastic bags containing pot and heroin, said Kennedy.
The men claimed not to know where the heroin came from, Kennedy added.
Marlo Malone, 33, of County Street in Portsmouth, is charged with possession of a schedule one substance and with possession with the intent to distribute, said Kennedy.
Devonne Karim, 42, of Oakleaf Place in Portsmouth, is charged with possession with the intent to distribute, said Kennedy.
