GLASGOW — Five people were arrested at a Glasgow residence on Thursday for methamphetamine manufacturing.
Rachel J. Pitcock, 23, of 1722 Allens Creek Road, in Burkesville; Christopher R. Perdue, 35, of 507 Grandview Ave.; Donnie D. Norris, Jr., 24, of 701 Woodland St., in Burkesville; Robert W. Greenwalt, 20, of 112 B Elm Hill Drive; and Daniel G. Elkins, 38, of 314 N. Lee St., Fort Gibson, Okla., were each charged with manufacturing methamphetamine, unlawful possession of a meth precursor, unlawful transaction with a minor and possession of drug paraphernalia.
The arrests came after officers with the Glasgow Police Department went to 507 Grandview Ave., to investigate a drug complaint. After arriving at the scene, police made contact with Elkins outside the residence. While the subject was emptying his pockets, marijuana was found and Elkins then fled on foot, according to police.
After officers took Elkins into custody, he was searched and a powdered substance believed to be methamphetamine was found on his person.
Once police entered the home, they discovered the owner, Perdue, and the other subjects inside. Consent was given to search the home, where officers discovered crushed Sudafed, methanol, Heet, used coffee filters, an HCL generator and several other paraphernalia items, the GPD said.
A 16-year-old female juvenile was also found inside the residence.
The owner told police that all the subjects inside the home were involved in the manufacturing of meth.
GPD officers Jesse Barton and Mike Houchens, Sgt. Jason Morgan and Capt. James Duff all assisted in the arrests.
