Delivery of Controlled Substance

On Thursday, June 11, 2009, Det. Lt. G.B. Swartwood, Det. S.F. Doyle and Pfc. W.A. Parks conducted a controlled purchase of narcotics utilizing a Confidential Informant.

The C.I. went to the 100 block of North High Street where he/she met with a black male in a white shirt. The unidentified black male got into the C.I.’s vehicle and went to another location. The black male gave crack cocaine to the C.I. in exchange for money. Martinsburg officers then went to the vehicle and located the black male in the passenger seat, where he was taken into custody without incident. The male was identified as Curtis Lane, AKA Curt-Curt, who is also on federal probation. A search of the passenger seat by Det. Lt. G.B. Swartwood revealed the controlled currency next to the passenger seat.

The C.I. turned the crack cocaine into Det. Lt. G.B. Swartwood. Once back at the Martinsburg Police Department the drugs tested positive for cocaine.

Curtis Lane was processed at the Martinsburg Police Department and then taken to the Eastern Regional Jail to await arraignment.
