8.1 pounds of reported delivered meth gets man arrested
HENDERSON, Ky (WEHT) – A successful controlled delivery of over eight pounds of suspected meth helped lead to the arrest of a Henderson man.
According to an affidavit, on June 12, the Evansville DEA office was contacted by an outside law enforcement agency regarding a suspicious parcel found to contain 8.1 pounds of a crystalline substance that had a presumptive field test for meth.
Officials found out that the parcel was intended to be delivered to an address in Evansville.
The affidavit says the Evansville-Vanderburgh County Drug Task Force conducted a controlled delivery the next day. Detectives doing surveillance reportedly saw Davont Marquez Terry driving around the area allegedly doing counter-surveillance for more than an hour before leaving and returning about 30 minutes later driving a pickup truck.
Terry allegedly took the parcel and left. A traffic stop was conducted, and Terry was taken into custody without incident. He allegedly denied knowing he was transporting illegal narcotics despite earlier surveillance and returning in a different vehicle.
He was booked into the Vanderburgh County Jail.
