Eight people were charged with drug trafficking after a search of a home on Karen Court in Oak Grove Friday morning.
Oak Grove Police say they went to the home to locate 20-year-old Jahmire McKoy of Fort Campbell who was wanted in Clarksville for an aggravated assault and while at the home they could smell the odor of marijuana coming from inside.
McKoy along with 21-year-old Israel Olanrewaju of Oak Grove, 21-year-old Isaiah Porter of Clarksville, 20-year-old Javarious Hale of Clarksville, 18-year-old Aaniyah Kirk of Scranton, Pennsylvania, 23-year-old Aazjae Wilkerson of Oak Grove, 22-year-old Stacey Jackson of Oak Grove, and 19-year-old Seinia Walden of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania were all inside the home with a juvenile.
After getting a search warrant for the home, police say ecstasy, marijuana, and guns were found inside.
All eight were arrested and charged with second-degree unlawful transaction with a minor, using restricted ammunition during a felony (no shots fired), trafficking marijuana and date rape drugs. Police say more charges are pending.
McKoy was also arrested on the warrant from Clarksville. The child is now in the care of the Department of Community Based Services.
