Deputy Gary
Garboski and his K-9 partner Molly work the streets of Levy County searching
for drugs being transported in vehicles. This past weekend was no exception.
Molly depends on her partner to stop the cars, but finding drugs in a vehicle
is all up to her. She does the hard work and then makes Deputy Garboski finish
the paperwork.
Over this past
weekend, Molly and Deputy Garboski made four drug arrests. Deputy Garboski
conducted a traffic stop on Main Street in Chiefland. During the stop Molly
gave Deputy Garboski her signal that she smelled drugs in the vehicle. Deputy
Garboski arrested Ronald Fowler (2/22/89) for possession of methamphetamine and
possession of drug paraphernalia. Christopher Lee (7/18/89), who was also in
the same vehicle with Fowler, was found in possession of a misdemeanor amount
of marijuana and issued a Notice To Appear in court.
Deputy Garboski
conducted a traffic stop on North Hathaway Avenue later in the evening in
Bronson, and Molly found drugs in this vehicle, too. Nicholas Galloway (1/3/99)
was arrested for possession of cocaine, possession of marijuana and possession
of drug paraphernalia. Marie Blueford (10/1/98), a passenger in the vehicle,
was issued a Notice To Appear in court for possession of drug paraphernalia.
Sheriff McCallum vowed his dedication to arresting those who
choose to transport, use or sell narcotics in Levy County. He outfits his men
and women with the best equipment available. Special K-9’s, like Molly, are
invaluable tools which help combat the use of narcotics in our county. This
weekend’s arrests are typical, and we will continue the fight, using every tool
available.
