Two La Grange residents were arrested Tuesday night after Lenoir County Sheriff’s Office officials found methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia at a Wheat Swamp Road residence.

William Michael Gray, 32, and Casey Raelyn Stocks, 31, were at 3630 Wheat Swamp Road when LCSO SCARR (Street Crimes and Ready Response) team members, B shift deputies and detectives assisted probation and parole officers from the N.C. Department of Adult Correction in a warrantless search. Once on the scene, probation officers located illegal drugs, which led to a search warrant being issued and served.

Detectives arrested Gray and Stocks and they received the following charges:

·      Felony possession of methamphetamine

·      Felony maintaining a vehicle, dwelling or place for controlled substances

·      Misdemeanor possessing drug paraphernalia

Gray received a $220,000 secured bond while Stocks received a $10,000 secured bond. Both were placed in the Lenoir County Detention Center.
