Drug Dealers Asleep in Vehicle, Arrested

Suspected Drug Dealers Asleep on the Job — Fri, 25 Sep 2026 21:11:06 +0000
On September 15, just before 11 p.m., deputies were in the 7600 block of East D Street on an unrelated call when they noticed a vehicle pulled off the roadway with two men visibly passed out inside. Something didn’t seem right, so deputies decided to take a closer look. As they approached the vehicle, deputies could see two men asleep inside, along with large amounts of cash, small clear baggies, a digital scale, and a white powdery substance in plain view and scattered around the vehicle’s center console. Based on what deputies observed, they believed the items were consistent with the distribution of narcotics. Both men were awakened and taken into custody. The 37-year-old driver and 33-year-old passenger were booked into the Pierce County Jail for Unlawful Possession of a Controlled Substance with Intent to Deliver. The vehicle was towed and a search warrant was obtained as part of the ongoing investigation.

On September 21, 2026, Pierce County Sheriff’s Animal Control responded to complaints regarding a property reportedly operating a dog rescue under deplorable conditions. When Animal Control arrived, they discovered 15 dogs (two with injuries) confined to small crates inside a garage, with no access to food or water. Deputies also observed signs indicating that some of the dogs had likely been confined to their crates for extended periods of time. Inside a second garage, Animal Control located two cats confined to cages without access to clean food or water. It appeared the cats had been without proper food and water for approximately five days. On September 22, 2026, a warrant was obtained to remove all 15 dogs and two cats from the property. The animals were safely removed and transported to a licensed rescue, where they will receive proper care, food, water, and medical attention as needed. The individuals at the residence did not have a kennel license and did not have the resources necessary to properly operate an animal rescue. There are limi
