The arrests of Deanna Martin, 29, and Tommie Plum, came just before 6:45 p.m. at the intersection of Fourth and Franklin streets, Chief Andy Jackson said.
It was there agents Jamie Hardy and Corey Dixon allegedly observed a drug transaction.
Investigation led the agents to discover 20 dosage unit of heroins inside Plum's mouth, Jackson said. “It was a very dangerous situation. Some of the bindles had holes in the bag.”
Martin, of Monroe Street, faces charges of possession with intent sell and deliver heroin, maintaining a vehicle to keep a controlled substance and one count of possession of schedule I.
Plum, of Madison Street, faces the same charges.
Martin was jailed on $2,000 secured bond while Plum received a $5,000 secured bond, his higher bond coming because he was allegedly hiding the heroin, Jackson said.
