Sheriff Randy Smith is pleased to announce arrests made by the Proactive Enforcement Unit with the St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Narcotics Division.
At approximately 3:20 p.m. Friday (March 10), detectives with the STPSO Proactive Enforcement Unit were patrolling the area of Alton near Slidell. During that patrol, detectives conducted a traffic stop on a silver Dodge Caravan. An occupant of the vehicle, Kelroy Robertson (DOB 9/24/1988) of Slidell, was found to be in possession of approximately 3.9 grams of crack/cocaine, approximately 3.6 grams of methamphetamine, approximately 0.8 grams of Fentanyl, approximately 4.1 grams of marijuana and drug paraphernalia. Kelroy attempted to flee from detectives during the stop but was taken into custody.
At approximately 8:15 p.m. Monday (March 13), detectives with the STPSO Proactive Enforcement Unit were patrolling in the Pearl River area when they initiated a traffic stop on a gold Nissan Pathfinder after the driver failed to signal for a right turn. The Pathfinder was also observed to have a switched license plate. The vehicle drove into a driveway in the 67000 block of Jack Crawford Road and the vehicle’s passenger, Brandon Williams (DOB 3/08/1978), was observed discarding what was later determined to be a clear plastic wrapper containing approximately 4.8 grams of a green rock-like substance suspected to be fentanyl. A search warrant was executed on the residence, which is where both Williams and the driver of the Pathfinder, Justin Crowe (DOB 9/27/1991), reportedly resided. The search yielded approximately 7.25 grams of methamphetamine, an additional 1.38 grams of the same green rock-like substance suspected to be fentanyl, 18 grams of marijuana, hundreds of used hypodermic syringes, glass smoking pipes, multiple digital scales and yet to be determined amount of property suspected of being stolen and used for payment in the illegal drug trade.
