Narcotics officers with the Columbus-Lowndes joint narcotics task force recovered about $65,000 worth of illegal drugs in a raid in south Columbus Sunday.
Officers, along with members of the U.S. Marshals Task Force, executed a warrant at 508 15th Ave. S. where they arrested Tiquan Davis, 33, and charged him with multiple felonies, including drug trafficking and possession of a weapon by a convicted felon, according to a task force press release.
When officers entered the home, they found Davis attempting to flush marijuana down the toilet, the press release says. Officers also recovered three handguns, 1-1/2 pounds of cocaine, two pounds of marijuana and several hundred dollars in cash.
Davis has been charged with three counts of possession of a weapon by a convicted felon, trafficking cocaine, possession of marijuana with intent to distribute and tampering with physical evidence, according to the press release. He also had outstanding warrants for aggravated assault and eluding law enforcement.
Davis is currently in custody at Lowndes County Adult Detention Center. His bond has not been set.
