Three people were arrested in Old Forge after a woman sold crack during a controlled drug purchase Friday, police said.
Lackawanna County detectives said Bernadette Samuel, 46, of Pittston, and Derrick Jones, 30, of New York City, were in a car driven by Shaun Lussi, 34, of Pittston, when Ms. Samuel sold crack near 1000 South Main St.
Police found another piece of crack in Ms. Samuel's sock, along with a small amount of marijuana, and almost $700 in cash on Mr. Jones, according to a complaint. Mr. Lussi admitted to police he gave the other two a ride in exchange for cocaine, police said.
All three were charged with criminal conspiracy to deliver a controlled substance.
Mr. Jones and Ms. Samuel were also charged with possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia, while Ms. Samuel was charged with delivery of a controlled substance and criminal use of a communication facility.
Bail and arraignment information were unavailable Friday night.
