Narrative: On 13 August 2015 at 6:39 PM a deputy stopped a Chevrolet Pick-Up truck towing a trailer carrying a motorcycle for speeding on Gumboro Road. During the stop, the deputy discovered that the individual driving the truck, Jerome Hicks, had his driver’s license revoked by the State of Delaware. While standing next to the open window, the deputy also detected a strong odor of burnt marijuana emanating from within the vehicle which caused the deputy to initiate a search. During the search, the deputy did locate marijuana, but further search revealed 13 individually wrapped baggies that contained heroin.

A query conducted on the motorcycle on the trailer revealed that it had been reported stolen in Montgomery County, MD back in July.

Due to the amount of heroin and its individual packaging, the deputy arrested Hicks and his two passengers, Leontya Adkins and Travis Irving, for possession of Heroin with the intent to distribute. All three were transported to the Central Booking Unit where they were processed and taken in front of the District Court Commissioner. Following their initial appearance, all three were detained on bond in the Detention Center, Jerome Hicks in lieu of $55,000.00 bond and both Leontya Adkins and Travis Irving on $50,000.00 bond each.
