Knoxville, TN (WOKI) The Knox County Sheriff’s Office had a busy St. Patrick’s Day.
KCSO says officers conducted a traffic stop and executed two search warrants resulting in the seizure of two handguns, nearly 1,000 grams of fentanyl, almost 2,500 grams of marijuana and over $14,000 in drug money.
Officials add that “one suspect tried to escape—first in his vehicle, then on foot—tossing baggies of narcotics into the air as he ran.” “Unlucky for him, we still caught him, and the drugs were recovered from his abandoned vehicle,” KCSO officials said.
