The Lookout Mountain Drug Task Force arrested seven people in part of a dismantling of a trafficking organization operating in Walker, Catoosa and Chattooga Counties. The arrest came during a traffic stop when police found two ounces of “ice” methamphetamine.
Those arrests led Police to a Trion residence where they seized two more ounces of “ice” and arrested two additional individuals.
The arrests further led Officers to a business at Direct Connection Drive in Catoosa County. At Brothers Wholesales, Officers discovered one and a half pounds of “ice” and made an additional three arrests.
The drugs are estimated at $70,000.00 with even more arrests on the horizon.
Among those arrested were:
Paul Dewayne Warren, 45, of Trion
Courtney Dawn Schrimpsher, 25, of Lafayette
Kenneth Lee Scholtz, 47, of Trion
Kenneth Loren Scholtz, 18, of Trion
