An Ocklawaha woman was arrested on a slew of drug charges as the result of a car crash investigation in The Villages.
Deputies responded to the crash near the Spanish Plaines shopping center around 1:40 p.m. Tuesday, according to an arrest report from the Sumter County Sheriff’s Office. During the investigation, a K-9 unit alerted to the odor of narcotics in the vehicle of 44-year-old Jennifer Lee Morris.
A search of the vehicle yielded multiple prescription pill bottles in the front passenger seat. These contained three oxycodone pills and three methadone pills. In the center console and driver’s seat sat 0.17 grams of marijuana and two marijuana smoking pipes, the report said.
Additionally, an unlabeled prescription bottle was determined to contain 10 grams of fentanyl, over the 4-gram amount considered trafficking, the report said.
Morris was arrested on charges of possession of oxycodone, methadone, marijuana and drug paraphernalia, as well as trafficking of fentanyl. She was booked at the Sumter County Detention Center with bond set at $56,000.
