A Clarkesville man is behind bars charged with trafficking methamphetamine. He was arrested over the weekend at a residence less than a half-mile from Woodville Elementary School.
Habersham County deputies and agents with the Appalachian Regional Drug Enforcement Office (ARDEO) executed a search warrant at 200 Midland Drive in Clarkesville Saturday morning. Inside the home they say they found approximately one quarter-pound of meth and other illegal drugs.
Authorities arrested 49-year-old Darron Wayne Mann. ARDEO Special Agent in Charge Trent Hillsman says Mann’s arrest followed a three-month long investigation. He says officers waited until Saturday to execute the search warrant due to the home’s proximity to the school.
Mann faces multiple drug charges including trafficking and selling methamphetamine and trafficking meth within 500 feet of a school zone. He was booked into the Habersham County jail.
