Dispute leads to drug arrest
A domestic argument led Wareham Police to a drug arrest on November 16.
A Wareham Police detective and State Trooper responded to a dispute on Tihonet Road involving two males and a female at roughly 1 p.m. But when the officers attempted to speak with one of the males, he took off – running into a nearby home, according to police.
The officers entered the home with the permission of the homeowner and secured the man, later identified as 20-year-old Jarrett Galloway of 64 Fearing Hill Road, but not before finding more than $7,000 in cash strewn about the basement floor, a small bag of what officers suspected was marijuana, and 12 pills that appeared to be homemade, police said.
Galloway was arrested, and when booked at the police station, was found to be possessing additional marijuana, cash, and drug paraphernalia, according to police.
Galloway was charged with possession of a “Class B” substance with intent to distribute. He was later arraigned in Wareham District Court.
