POLICE GET DRUGS OFF CITY STREETS

By Jon Mayhew [LINCOLNTON] – Authorities make two big drug arrests in two separate cases Tuesday.

First, Sgt. Willie Vaughn conducted a traffic stop on East Main Street, involving 40-year-old Teresa Anthony Hunsucker of 605 Huss Street.

“She was cited for driving while license revoked,” said Vaughn. “We also served drug warrants on her.”

Hunsucker was charged with a grand total of 10 felony counts of possession with intent to sell, manufacture and deliver controlled substances, as well as possession of marijuana and the sale and delivery of marijuana. She was taken to the Harven A. Crouse Detention Center under a $43,000 secured bond. As of late Wednesday night, Hunsucker posted bond and was released from jail.

The second incident happened around 5pm.

Authorities arrest 27-year-old Travis Lee Goins of Morrison Houser Road, Lincolnton. The suspect was arrested at 208 Lynch Street.

Authorities seized about a pound of marijuana from Goins, who they say was planning to sell the drug on the streets of Lincolnton.

Goins was taken to the Harven A. Crouse Detention Center under a $35,000 secured bond. Goins had posted bond and was released from jail as of late Wednesday night.
