Officials found over 100 hydrocodone pills and 3 quarters of a pound of compressed marijuana in the suspects' vehicle.
"We're sitting at the crossroads of 50 and I-77," Sheriff Ken Merritt says, "and we are doing interdiction on the highways, and this will continue."

Meanwhile, Parkersburg city police say the area's narcotics task force arrested a Columbus man Thursday on drug charges.
Quentin DeVaughn Davis is charged with delivery and intent to deliver, and is being held on $250,000 bond.
