A Summerville Couple is suspected of renting a room at the Carousel Inn, Trion, out of which to deal drugs.

According to officer Trey Skelton with the Chattooga County Narcotics Unit,  officers received a tip that methamphetamine was being sold from the motel room. After receiving that information the drug task force had the couple and the motel room under surveillance for several weeks.

Officers knocked on the door early Saturday morning and got consent to search. They found two small plastic bags of methamphetamine; 42 blue pills thought to be Clonazepan; 1 1/2 suspected marijuana cigarettes; and a glass pipe containing suspected methamphetamine residue.

Arrested were Joshua Lee Sword and Angela Renea Jackson, both of a Sixth Street, Trion Address. They were both charged with possession of a schedule IV drug; possession of a schedule IV drug with intent to distribute; possession of less than one ounce of marijuana; possession of drug related objects; and possession of methamphetamine.
