Butler woman facing drug charges for heroin, crack cocaine
A Butler woman out on bail on charges in a felony drug case is back in trouble with the law after city police said they found her with heroin and crack cocaine.
Jennifer A. Young, 38, faces a hearing next month on charges that followed her latest arrest.
Police said they spotted Young around 8 p.m. May 8 while responding to a call for suspicious activity on the 400 block of North Chestnut Street.
The defendant is accused of running to the back of a garage and she appeared to be trying to hide a purple bag, police said. Officers told her to come out, but she did not immediately comply. She eventually gave up.
