Edmonson Voice Staff Report:
Two different men were arrested on felony drug charges in separate incidents on Easter Sunday, ​according to the Edmonson County Sheriff's Office. 

The first incident took place around 7:30am, the Sheriff's Office said, when deputies were dispatched to South Union General Baptist Church on Sunfish Road after Grayson County deputies responded to a collision that had actually taken place about 100 yards into Edmonson County. 

According to a press release, Grayson County deputies had already determined that the driver, who was identified as Rodney L. Howell (41) of Brownsville, was under the influence of alcohol. While Edmonson County deputies administered field sobriety tests, Howell was also allegedly found to be in possession of a controlled substance. He was arrested and charged with:
  • Operating Vehicle Under Influence Alcohol/Drugs/Etc., .08-1st Offense
  • Operating Vehicle with Expired Operators License
  • Possession Controlled Substance, 1st Degree, 1st Offense (opiates)
  • Prescription Controlled Substance Not in Proper Container, 1st Offense
Howell was lodged in the Hart County Jail.

Later that evening, around 6:00 pm, deputies responded to a report of a suspicious person in the driveway of a residence on Louisville Road, where the caller said the male subject wouldn't leave. Deputies said when they arrived, the man was wandering around the property and around the door of the residence. 

The man was identified as Victor Lee Constant (38) of Smiths Grove and law enforcement said they detected the strong odor of alcohol in addition to seeing a white powdery substance which was believed to be methamphetamine on Constant’s person. A search of Constant’s vehicle resulted in the deputy finding suspected methamphetamine, suspected marijuana, cash, and drug paraphernalia, according to a press release.
Constant was arrested and charged with:
  • Possession of Marijuana
  • Possession of Controlled Substance 1st Degree, 1st Offense (methamphetamine)
  • Drug Paraphernalia—Buy/Possess
  • Public Intoxication, Controlled Substance (excludes alcohol)
  • Harassment (no physical contact)
  • Criminal Trespassing-3rd Degree
After medical clearance, Constant was lodged in Hart County Jail.
