911 Call Leads To Arrest For Chattaroy Man.
Mingo County Sheriff Deputies got a little more than they bargained for when they answered a 911 call from a female. The call was made from the residence of Chattaroy resident Shawn Hicks.
When deputies arrived on scene they knocked on the door and were told to enter the home.
When they entered they found substances believed to be crack cocaine and marijuana. They also discovered a large number of baggies and digital scales.
30 year-old Hicks was taken into custody and charged with possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver. Magistrate Eugene Crum set bond at $ 41,000. If Hicks posts bail he will serve home confinement.
Deputy Kenny Stewart had to be led from the home after he was overcome by fumes coming from a spoon in which the defendant was heating a substance.
The substance was later determined to be ammonia. Stewart told the Williamson Daily News that other than hurting at times when he breathes, he is fine.
