The Sheriff’s Office tells us that Jeron Morris of Ruther Glen was arrested during a traffic stop. At the time of his arrest, Morris was wanted by the Caroline County Sheriff’s Office for three counts of distribution of schedule II drugs. Following his arrest, narcotics investigators and deputies served two search warrants at homes connected to Morris in Caroline County.
A 9mm handgun, digital weight scales, an electronic money counter, and approximately $8400.00 worth of suspected cocaine were found during the search warrants.
