A local man living at 445 Evergreen St was arrested on Saturday after Sanford and Lee County investigators raided his home for the second time. Narcotics agents with the Sanford Police Department and the Lee County Sheriff’s Office searched 31-year-old Michael Jerrod Johnson’s home and concluded that he was running an “illegal nightclub” out of his home.
Agents reportedly found nine bags of marijuana, 94 cans of beer, six bottles of liquor, an assortment of mixers and food items as well as 81 Phillies brand “blunt” cigars. Agents said that the cigars are typically restuffed with marijuana and smoked.
Johnson is charged with maintaining a dwelling to keep drugs, a felony, and possession for the sale of alcohol without ABC permits. In addition to Johnson, six adults and a minor were arrested. The minor, who was released to their parents, is being charged with possession to intent to sell marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.
