SPRINGHILL — Two north Webster Parish residents are being held in the parish jail after members of the North Webster Narcotics Task Force reportedly conducted a “buy, bust” in the parking lot of a Springhill business.
Springhill Chief of Police Will Lynd says 29-year-old Willey Jeb McCuen of Sarepta and 27-year-old Springhill resident Hope Danielle Modisette were arrested last week when they allegedly arrived at an arranged meeting place prepared to make a drug sale.
Lynd said the pair arrived at the time and place designated, and discovered their “customers” were task force members from the Springhill Police Department and Webster Parish Sheriff’s Office. During a search of the vehicle, agents reportedly located over 28 grams of methamphetamine in Modisette’s purse.
Both McCuen and Modisette were taken to Bayou Dorcheat Correctional Center, Lynd said.
