CCDU charges one after executing residential search warrant

The Coffee County Drug Unit recently charged Quashaw Marqise Tucker of Douglas with multiple drug offenses following the execution of a residential search warrant.

Investigators with the CCDU and the K-9 unit arrived at the home, located on Davis Avenue, on Monday, October 17, just before 11:00 a.m. to conduct the search. As a result, the CCDU discovered a variety of suspected drugs inside the residence, including quantities of methamphetamine, cocaine, Oxycodone (a Schedule II controlled substance), and a large quantity of marijuana.

Tucker was transported to the Coffee County Jail and booked on four counts, including possession of a Schedule II controlled substance, possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute, possession of methamphetamine, and possession of marijuana.

Documents online filed in the Superior Court of Coffee County show that Tucker was previously arrested in December 2019 on one count of battery-family violence for allegedly punching a woman in her face. He pled guilty to the charge in August 2020.

On Wednesday, October 19, investigators with the CCDU conducted their second search of the week at a residence in Coffee County. Additional details will be released soon.
