Indiana Conservation Officers arrested a Louisville, KY woman this morning along Interstate 64 in Floyd County.
Kayla Crawford,19, was charged with Possession of Methamphetamine, Possession of Controlled Substance, Possession of Marijuana, Battery on a Police Officer, and Resisting Law Enforcement.
Shortly after 10:00 this morning, Floyd County Dispatch received a report of a physical domestic disturbance on Interstate 64, near exit 119, and Indiana Conservation Officer Paul Crockett was nearby. Officer Crockett observed Crawford walking barefoot into oncoming interstate traffic, and she fled upon his commands to stop.
A foot pursuit ensued, and upon apprehension, Crawford allegedly bit a Milltown Police Officer, who had arrived to assist. After Crawford was taken into custody, she was found to be in possession of methamphetamine, multiple prescription pills, and marijuana.
Crawford was arrested and incarcerated at the Floyd County Jail -The other party involved in the domestic disturbance was not located at the scene. Assisting agencies included Milltown Police, Indiana State Police, and New Albany Police.
All charges are merely accusations and defendants are presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
On April 29, 2017, The ScottCounty partnership in cooperation with the Drug Enforcement Administration, ScottCounty Sheriff’s Office and Scottsburg Police gave the public an opportunity to help in preventing prescription drug abuse and theft by ridding their homes of potentially dangerous, unused and unwanted prescription drugs.
Citizens brought numerous prescription medications and dropped them off for disposal at the drug drop location which was set up at Wal-Mart in Scottsburg Indiana.
72.8 lbs of prescription medications were collected locally and will be disposed of.
There were more than 4,000 community partners at almost 5,200 collection sites nationwide. Over the life of the program, 7.1 million pounds (more than 3,500 tons) of prescription drugs have been removed from medicine cabinets, kitchen drawers, and nightstands by citizens around the country.
“Take back programs offer a safe, simple, and anonymous way to keep dangerous prescription drugs out of the wrong hands and prevent substance abuse,” said Chuck Rosenberg, Acting DEA Administrator.
Unused medicines in the home are a problem because the majority of the 6.4 million Americans who abused CPDs in 2015, including the almost 4 million who abused prescription painkillers, say they obtained those drugs from friends and family, including from a home medicine cabinet, according to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health released last month. Some painkiller abusers move on to heroin: Four out of five new heroin users started with painkillers. Almost 30,000 people—78 a day—died from overdosing on these painkillers or heroin in 2014, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
In the last two years since new regulations made the disposal of CPDs easier for patients and their caregivers, many law enforcement agencies, pharmacies, hospitals, and clinics have begun continuous collection of these medications.
