$25K in pot seized by deputies

A suspected drug dealer has bonded out of jail and another suspect is being sought in connection with a $25,000 marijuana bust last week.

Tameria Michelle Hall, 22, 155 Dan Boone Road, Carthage, was taken into custody and charged with the trafficking of marijuana at a raid at north Pecan Avenue residence. 

At least one more suspect is being sought in connection with the ongoing multi-agency drug investigation that yielded the marijuana in vacuum-sealed bags last Thursday, the authorities said.

Jail records show that Hall released on a $50,000 bond Saturday.

Neshoba County Sheriff Eric Clark said that more charges were anticipated and that they have identified the one additional suspect though they have not made an arrest.

At about 10:45 a.m. agents from the Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics, Neshoba County Sheriff’s Office and Philadelphia Police Department executed a search warrant at 909 Pecan Avenue.

“This is an ongoing investigation, and more charges are expected to be filed,” Clark said.

Clark said that approximately four pounds of high-grade marijuana, with a street value of approximately $25,000 was seized.
