Brooks County - Four South Georgians were arrested in a drug bust over the weekend.
A tip led investigators to a home on Oliff Road in Brooks County where they found a little over a pound of marijuana, 31 grams of methamphetamines, one vile of steroids, several firearms, and about $2,200 cash.
The homeowner, 25-year-old Jason Morse, was arrested and charged with possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, trafficking and possession of methamphetamines, and possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime. Three other people in the home, Brandon Pollack, B.J. Hammond, and Paul Wright are also facing various drug charges.
"From some of the information that we've gathered, we think that Morse was one of the major suppliers in the county and hopefully by taking him, we'll slow it down some," said Chief Deputy Jerry Miller.
The suspects are being held in the Brooks County Jail.
