A man has been arrested after Darlington County deputies found brass knuckles and drugs during an investigation.
A press release from the Darlington County Sheriff’s Office says 27-year-old Curtis Michael Dixon, of Gadge Drive in the Hartsville area, was arrested on Thursday evening following an investigation in the Pine Ridge Community.
Dixon is charged with possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine, possession of a controlled substance schedule II, and simple possession of marijuana, according to the release. He is also charged with violation of probation by the South Carolina Department of Probation, Parole and Pardon Services. He remains in custody at the W. Glenn Campbell Detention Center on a $12,000 bond.
According to the release, investigators located an individual outside of a convenience store in the 2800 block of W. Old Camden Road on a dirt bike around 10 p.m. This person told investigators he had brass knuckles in his pocket. When an investigator removed the brass knuckles, a bag of marijuana was found. Following a search of the man and his book bag, about 1 gram of methamphetamine, 34 schedule II pills, and 2.5 grams of marijuana were found.
