Two people were arrested and two arrest warrants were issued following a drug bust on Aug. 2 in Towns County.
Officers with the Towns County Sheriff’s Office raided Mountain County Inn on Ga. 66 in Young Harris after citizens complained of drug activity.
Authorities conducted a two-week-long investigation which ended with the arrests of Jordan Tyler Patterson, 20, of Blairsville and Adam Louis Milton Hataway, 20, of Blue Ridge. They are charged with possession of methamphetamine and other drug related objects.
More narcotics charges could follow once other substances are tested.
