Atmore residents arrested on felony charges during the period June 20-26, as well as non-residents arrested by local authorities on felony charges, included the following:
*A Pensacola, Fla. man was arrested June 20 after Atmore police responded around noon to the 1800 block of South Main Street in reference to “a suspicious person sitting in a parked vehicle, acting strangely.”
Officers contacted the driver, Ryan Rais Green, 29, who was parked next to the roadway with the vehicle running, was talking to himself and “seemed to be under the influence of alcohol and/or narcotics.”
When Greene was removed from the vehicle, police spotted loose pills on the dashboard and a glass pipe on the console. Also discovered were several Cathinone pills (a “cousin” to amphetamine), and the glass pipe contained residue that field-tested positive for methamphetamine.
