Another suspect was arrested in connection with Thursday's drug bust in Warren County

Another suspect was arrested in connection with last week's drug bust on Tanglewood Drive.

Sheryl Sue Assad, 48, was arrested by Warren County Sheriff's deputies and investigators in the 100 block of St. Patrick Street around 1 p.m. She was charged with dealing methamphetamine (£3.5).

Warren County Sheriff Martin Pace reported that Assad rented the mobile home where Thomas Jones stored crystal meth on their behalf. She is now booked into the Warren County Jail and will appear in Warren County Justice Court on Wednesday.

Pace commented, “This is still an ongoing investigation into methamphetamine distribution in Vicksburg and Warren County.”

In last week's drug raid, Vicksburg police and the Warren County Sheriff's Office seized 217 grams, or approximately half a pound, of crystal methamphetamine, 131 pressed fentanyl pills, half an ounce of crack cocaine and $4,148.00. The street value of the illegal drugs is $7,800.

Thomas Jones and Charley Lee Brown were both arrested.
