Suspected drug dealer arrested

An investigation by the Lincoln Parish Narcotics Enforcement Team has led to the arrest of a 23-year-old man on multiple drug charges.

Jarvis A. Logan of Ruston was taken into custody Friday morning when officers executed a search warrant at his apartment at Campus Evolution Villages at 1812 West Alabama Avenue.

During a search of the apartment, bags of marijuana, cocaine, a .223 pistol, drug packaging materials, and oxycodone tablets were recovered.

The apartment is considered part of a drug-free zone since it is within 1,000 feet of the Louisiana Tech campus.

Logan was booked on warrants from the investigation preceding the search, including three counts of distribution of marijuana, two counts of possession of controlled substance in a drug free zone, two counts of distribution of amphetamine, and illegal use of a controlled substance in the presence of a minor.

Based on evidence found during the search, Logan was also booked for possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, illegal possession of a firearm, possession of controlled substance in a drug free zone, possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of cocaine, and possession of oxycodone.

Logan’s bail was set at $372,500.
