After searching the vehicle deputies located about 24 grams of methamphetamine and 28 grams of marijuana. They also found prescription pills, suboxone strips, syringes, and other drug paraphernalia. 

“I would like to commend the deputies who made these arrests for the outstanding job they did in getting these drug dealers off our streets. This is another example of our deputies being proactive by seeing a suspicious vehicle that did not belong in the area and conducting a traffic stop,” said Sheriff Matt Gentry. “This is a lot of meth, marijuana, pills, etc that we seized today that was not able to be sold to our citizens here in Cullman County.” 

The suspects are in the Cullman County Detention Center. Each suspect has a bond of $27,800, respectively.
