During their investigation, officers heard another shot and determined it came from the area near 205 E. Crossville Road.

“On making contact with a resident a strong odor of marijuana was noticed by the officer,” Lt. McGee said in the press release. “During additional questioning enough information was obtained and a search warrant was issued.”

Morris was charged with possession of less than one ounce of marijuana and Wilkerson with possession of less than one-ounce of marijuana and possession of marijuana with intent to distribute.

McGee said these are preliminary charges. The investigation continues.

McGee said the meth-making chemicals found had not been mixed and there was no evidence of meth production, but the GBI was called in to clean up the area as a precaution.
